The biggest tango event in Texas is coming over
Thanksgiving, the Fandango de Tango in Austin.
The Saturday milonga is about as close to an All
Texas Milonga as we get. All the details are at:
http://www.learn2dance.com/fandango.htm
Martin & Natia will not host Friday classes or their
Saturday milonga that weekend of Nov 24-25 as they (and
most everyone else) will be in Austin at The Fandango.
The Helios Sunday milongas are on hiatus for a few weeks
due to renovations underway at Helios.
