    Dance, Belong, Connect — Tango at CDM Studio This Saturday

    Dear Tango Community,
     
    The magic of tango truly comes alive when we come together — and this Saturday, we’re opening our doors wide for an evening of connection, learning, and joyful movement at CDM Studio from 7:30–10 pm.
     
    This all-level lesson and practica is designed to welcome absolute beginners, returning dancers, and seasoned tangueros alike. No experience needed — just your curiosity and an open heart.
     
    Cost: $10 per person • FREE for first timers
     
    We’re building something meaningful: a tango community where everyone feels safe, supported, and encouraged. Your presence helps shape that.
     
    🌟 If you can, bring a little snack to share — it’s a lovely way to nourish each other between tandas.
     
    Come dance with us and feel the embrace of community.
     
    **Upcoming Tango Saturdays**
    We’ll continue dancing through December:
    • Nov 29
    • Dec 6, 13
     
    Looking forward to another beautiful and joy-filled evening together!
     

    With love and tango,
