Our tango and swing guest instructors return in March.  This month, each workshop will be followed by a two hour practice party.

Tango  March 21st  5pm

Leroy “T Mambo Jazz” Tyree gives us another “bite of the elephant”.  He starts with the basics; if you are new to tango, it isn’t too late to join us.  If you are an experienced dancer, this is a great review of the fundamentals.  A practica from 7 to 9pm will give you a chance to practice what you’ve learned.
[2 hours, $27 in advance or $30 at the door]

Swing  March 28th  5pm 4pm

Carl Linder and Karrie Willis will return for another swing workshop.  They have long been popular instructors at Frankie’s Blue Room and other venues.  Like Tyree, they have a smooth, comfortable dancing style and great sensitivity to the music.  We’ll have a party afterwards, with swing music plus other dance music, depending on dancers’ interest. Because of the Swinger’s Ball at the Willowbrook, we will not have a dance party on the 28th.
[2 hours, $30 in advance or $35 at the door]

Looking a little farther ahead, Pamm’s own teacher, Mary Hoedeman, will return the first second weekend of May with both workshops & private lessons.

For more information, call us at 630-717-9930, Monday through Friday, between 4:30 and 9:30 pm.

You can save a few dollars by registering in advance for either workshop on our Events page here.
