2. Israeli Folk Dancing 101 starts this Monday night from 7 to 8 at B'nai Israel.

Tonight, Thursday is Christian's Balboa Swing class. This is a unique swing dance as it is done in close embrace.

Also tonight starts Andrea's Tango Boot Camp. On September 17 and 18, Andrea has an absolute beginners Tango weekend which is a great time to start. pham.andrea@gmail.com
