And you will be a Hero or a Heroine when you complete Lesley Mitchell’s three week giro/molinete challenge.  There will be an easy and a difficult giro every week for you to master.

The first lesson is tonight at 8:30.  We suggest you come at 8 to the Suzanne Patterson Center to enjoy some tasty snacks and help us welcome the beginners to the tango community. Then you can get down to the business of serious dancing. That will definitely make you our Hero, giro or not. Admission $12 or $5 for full time students with ID.

If you haven’t yet, tell your friends our Beginner Tango Series starts tonight. They’ve got just minutes left to send us an email to pre-register and get the lower price.

All the other tango venues are on hiatus, closed, or taking up salsa. But if you want to tango anywhere this week (and who doesn’t?) between Cherry Hill and South Boundbrook, you’ve always got Viva.

Lesley Mitchell, Philadelphia’s premier tanguera, joins us this Thursday for an intermediate lesson at 8:30. Come to SPC at 8. Eat first, meet the beginners, dance later. We’re aiming to have an even better time than we did last week.

If you want to secure your place on the 2016 Olympic Tango Team, you need to start training immediately. Rio beckons.

Fortunately we’ve got the perfect coach for the tangathlete. ChuLo (whose team won gold at the San Marino Olympics) will be on hand Thursday at 8 to get us started with that all important teamwork.

If you know any tango wannabes who hope to qualify for the Team, please tell them our Beginner Tango Lessons start on August 23. Click the link for complete information.

Here are pictures of the medal ceremonies from last week. By the way, we never name you or geo-tag you in our photos. We wouldn’t want to jeopardize your place in the Witness Protection Program, even if you are an Olympic headliner.

First to ChuLo’s lesson about milonguero sequences for changing direction in tight spots.  That’s at 8 o’clock tonight.

Then listen to the music. ChuLo will be DJing all night. He brings the Porteño’s passion for all things Argentine, a musician’s ear and a dancer’s sensibility to his music selections. He’s on a one man mission to make the level of DJing in these parts as good as it is in Buenos Aires.

Join us from 8 to 11:45 tonight at the Suzanne Patterson Center. $12 admission, $5 for full time students with ID.

If you’re still listening, remind your non-tangoing friends that Viva will have Beginner Tango Lessons starting August 23.
