Today we worked through Mambo No. 5, El Toro, and Mystic Dance. The blend is starting to come and I am very happy with all student progress. Please make sure that you practice over the weekend!
I look forward to Tuesday when we not only make music, but everyone will surely have handed in their sheets!
