[Tango-L] Smart tango consumers

[Trini y Sean (PATangoS)]

Sorry to be posting so late on this thread.  But the "smart
tango consumer" can always ask the organizer/teacher what
the class is about and judge for themselves whether it
suits their needs.

There may be those organizers who say "take everything
because they'll be great" for their every event.  The smart
tango consumer will take their advice with a grain of salt
and will look for other sources for more info.
