In their own words, the goal of this special class is "to learn how to learn. It is about how to teach. It is about networking with your fellow tango teacher colleagues. Not to be mistaken to be a most advanced tango class, not a challenging pattern technique, etc., class". It is a great opportunity to share your teaching experience with fellow tango teachers from all over the country. Given the special characteristics of this class, attendance will be limited. RSVP as soon as you can. We encourage all teachers across the country to take advantage of this great opportunity to learn from two of the most innovative, inspiring and creative tango teachers. This class is not included in any pass for the Atlanta fest. However pricing will be as follows: With a Festival or Workshop Pass, only $15 additional, payable at the door. Otherwise, $35 at the door. (This class is not available through Paypal.) Saturday April 8th, 7:15-8:15 PM; Film screening presented by Tomas Howlin: MILONGUEROS ON THE SPOT: a screening of inedit material on film. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HOTEL UPDATE: We have reserved a large block of rooms at the Holiday Inn Select in Decatur (130 Clairemont Ave. Decatur, GA 30030, 404-371-0204).
