Norberto 'El Pulpo' Esbrez is responding to requests for classes focusing on the fundamentals of Argentine tango. He will teach two such classes, each with different material but both accessible for beginners or those who want to hone their basic skills, at Cafe Duvall (2257 W 23rd Pl, Chicago, 60608). The first will be Friday, August 15; the second on Tuesday, August 19. Each class will be from 7:30–9:00p; the price for each class is $15; both classes for $25 per person. Again, Norberto 'El Pulpo' Esbrez will teach two classes on Sunday, August 17: "Variations on Ganchos", 1:00-2:30p; and, "Top Secret new moves from Buenos Aires", 2:45-4:15p. (Yes, these are the topics previously announced for last Sunday, when - by popular demand - we covered other techniques.) Each class is $15 or both for $25. The Sunday classes, also at Cafe Duvall, will be followed by the Opposites Attract practica (4:30-7:00p) hosted by Phoebe J Grant and Jacquline Cahill. The Opposites Attract practica is $10 ($8 for anyone taking a pre-practica class with Pulpo or with prior reservation; multi-practica packages also are available). Pulpo still has some time for private lessons while in Chicago: $110 for a couple; $90 for a solo person to study with Pulpo. These rates are quoted per hour and there is a $10 per hour discount for each paid workshop taken July 27 or 28 (limit, 1 discount per each hour). Small group rates also are available.
