Jay Abling in Tucson January 28-31, 2010
| Jay Abling is one of our instructors for the Tucson Tango Festival because not only is he an accomplished instructor and dancer, he is a community builder.
Jay’s philosophy on his web site grabbed me right off: Kristine Goodwin, one of the best dancers in Tucson asked me to bring Jay Abling to Tucson, because she knows he has things to offer both the leaders and followers in our community, and I agree. |
