[HouTango-L] Fandango 2009; Starts In 1 Day; Nov 25-29 In Austin, TX

[Ricardo Moncada]

[Ricardo's Fandango, now in it's 11th year,  is still effectively
the All Texas Milonga, where people from all the Texas tango
groups get together.  Don't miss it!  --Lester]

We’ll be kicking off the Fandango on  Wed, Nov 26th at 6pm.

We're still taking registrations for the  Fandango.  At this time, it is 
too late to mail payments but you can pay at  the event.  Also,
our online registration is working great & it will  save you
time checking in to the event!  You can get to it from our web
site  at www.FandangoDeTango.com .  Use this link if you want
to go directly to  Online Registration .  We’ve had a great
response to the Fandango!  Our  registrations include dancers
from all over the United States and 3 other  countries, too.
It’s going to be a fun time!


We filled up our  room block at The Omni Hotel.  However, the Omni
has graciously increased  our room block so there are now more
rooms available to us at the very special  $89.  A great deal!
Remember, you must request the "Fandango"  discount for this rate.
Use the link below to make your Hotel room  reservations.

Beginner Class Special:  A very special  opportunity for you to
kick off your Tango dance instruction with the best in  the world!
Dance Festivals many times cater only to the dancer with  previous
knowledge but we want everyone to have access to these wonderful
instructors!  For all you more experienced Tango dancers, introduce
your  friends and family to the Tango by referring them to the
Beginner class  options.  This is our chance to share our passion,
and support and grow our  community of dancers!  Beginner 1 Class
Special:  This includes the Fri.  Beginner Classes; a great place
to learn about Argentine Tango and all its  beauty.  Beginner 1 &
2 Class Special:  This includes the Fri. &  Sun. Beginner Classes.
Adding the Sun Beginner classes gives you a more in  depth look
at the world of Tango.  These classes will be sequential so you
cannot take the Beginner 2 classes on Sunday without the Beginner
1 classes on  Friday.

The Thanksgiving Brunch Milonga is the best.  The food  is
fantastic--it's an "all you can eat" buffet prepared by fabulous
chefs—add to  that the fact you don’t have to cook, and
there's 4 hours of Tango music playing  for your dancing pleasure.
The result is a very memorable Thanksgiving  experience.

Our DJ’s for our Milongas will be:  Steve Brown, Phyllis
Wlliams, Gregory Lordi, & Laura Pellegrino All our Milongas will
be  open to the public.  Come take part in some fabulous dancing.
You can  pay for each Milonga individually at the event or online
if you want to avoid  the lines.  You can also get an “All
Milonga Pass” which includes all SIX  Milongas!

We are keeping our teachers busy with lots of group  classes,
so there are only a handful of private lessons available with
our  wonderful Tango Masters!!
