There are two special events this Sunday, Tango for Haiti a fundraiser at Hillel and an English Country dance. Make sure you make
one or both of these.
Tango Encanto meets this Friday. I believe it starts between 8 and 9pm. Contact Tango Encanto for exact time.
Happy Dancing,
Andy

Article: Be happy with wherever you are, while you work towards getting better
The other day, I was at an Argentine Tango class with a new dancer. She said to me that she needed to get better.
Funny thing was, five days before I was dancing with a woman that was as a good as a professional and she said the exact same thing.
(Hmm, maybe they said I needed to get better? Naw.)
If you feel like you need to get better, do not worry. Everyone feels that way.
So, be happy with wherever you are, while you work towards something better.
