12:30-2:00pm CLASS #3: The Dialogue of Taking Turns

Homage to Juan Lencina & his bien milonguero molinete - esponjoso y dinámico. Juan Lencina was a gem of a human I (Graham) was lucky enough to learn from and socialize at milongas in Buenos Aires 2016. He passed the feeling of this gem to me on November 11, 2017.Who will benefit: Any dancer who has taken previous classes this weekend and wants to dive deeper in their own molinete.
