Ah, I understand that the final problem was not paying students, but getting a teacher. A teacher had been arranged, then arrangements fell through. I think the final outcome is going to be one of our own teaching a Samba class in return for donations to HOSEF, but I don't think I'm the one with the authority to say any more than that. It is clear that there are many of us who want to learn Samba in class, as opposed to the gung-ho experimental method favored by others :) Not that I don't have the greatest possible admiration for the people who can figure it out for themselves. I just know I appreciate a little hand-holding. -- Karen Lofstrom
