Subject: NA-E: USTC Class Schedule

Hola Milongueros & Tangueras;

Here it is.  Our class schedule is finished and posted on our website at
www.BestofDance.com.

Some helpful hints for those traveling and joining us on Miami Beach for our
Memorial weekend, Memorial week or just enjoying the daily and or evening
events.

Tango Fantasy in Miami, is not B.A. Argentina.  Yes, we do have an All-Star
Argentinean Staff, but in a Fantasy vacation setting.

Everything will be under one very large roof.  The classrooms are large and
well air-conditioned, bringing a sweater to class is suggested.  Classes are
not fashion shows.  Almost everyone wears regular attire as in their
respective local classes.

The Fontainebleau is a luxury hotel, you'll see the 50' chandelier and
extravagant lobby when you enter the hotel.  In the evenings you can dress to
the nines, or be comfortable in casual cocktail attire.   Most enthusiasts of
Tango enjoy dressing for Tango.  We dance the evenings away to both live
music, and our favorite Tango CD's.

Beachwear is a necessity.  After training with world class professors, you
will be able to relax those tired muscles around a pool that looks like the
gorgeous lagoon from Gilligan's Island, or on beautiful Miami Beach 200' ft.
from the hotel rooms.

At the USTC Tango Fantasy on Miami Beach we use an International code.  We
greet everyone with a smile, and wish all a grand vacation.  We are just
starting our tradition.  I personally wish to dance with everyone that joins
us.  You'll find a unique camaraderie of friends reuniting old ties, and
making many new acquaintances and friendships.

We still have openings available for weekend or week packages, or you may
join us for half day classes, full day classes or just for the evening
Milongas.

The Fontainebleau is sold out on Memorial Day weekend May 26 - May 29th and
June 3 - 5th.  The Ramada Crown hotel one block south has rooms available.
You must call their local 800 number and speak with the local reservations
and tell them you are with the USTC Tango Fantasy.  The number is
800-327-8163.

Don't delay sign up today and joins Memorial weekend and week in Miami.

Tango Forever

Randy
