Hi everyone - tonight's classes will primarily involve reviewing and
extending the work we've done this month on paradas and 8-counts.

   - *6:30 - 7:30pm: "Beyond fundamentals" class*. Combining paradas with a
   sacada
   - *7:30 - 8pm: 1-2-3 Tango Level 1: Moving Together*. Linear 8-count
   variations
   - *8 - 8:30pm: 1-2-3 Tango Level 2: Taking Turns*. Uneven 8-count
   variations
   - *8:30 - 9pm: 1-2-3 Tango Level 3: Key Elements*. Planeo, lapiz,
   parada, y gancho

Last week I didn't get to introduce as much focus on the music, so we'll
make up for that this week! I'll draw our attention to stops / pauses in
the music to help us place our movements.
