This weekly 2-hour class is geared toward beginners who would like to explore the ultimate partner-dance experience - Argentine tango.

This is a beautiful dance that appeals to all ages and abilities. If you can, please bring a potential partner. If you can't find a person to join you, please come anyway. The first hour of each session will offer a structured lesson. The second hour will be a "guided practica." This is a period for students to explore and practice what they've learned with instructors on hand to coach and answer questions. Instructor Marge Dobie started dancing tango in Boise in 2001 and was instrumental in forming and sustaining the vibrant Boise tango community. She has traveled extensively to study, including festivals in the US and Buenos Aires, and has organized workshops with internationally renowned tango professionals here in Idaho. Her teaching style is welcoming, supportive, dynamic and energizing. Her primary goal as an instructor is to inspire students to start down the tango discovery path and reap the many benefits of experiencing this intimate, elevating, and creative dance. Instructor Jay Rabe has been involved in the Portland tango community since its beginning in the mid-90's. Since then, Portland has grown to be one of the largest and most vibrant tango communities in the US, in no small measure because of the two world-class tango festivals held there each year. Jay has studied in Buenos Aires and in the US with instructors from all corners of the world.

Transcendental Fireside Session 1, Emerson: Tuesday, Jan. 17 $12 Session 2, Thoreau: Monday, Feb. 13 $12 Session 3, Whitman: Thursday, March 23 $12 7:00-8:30pm for each, Hotel McCall Library $36 for whole series - choose one or register for allEnjoy three cozy evenings around the fireplace at the Hotel McCall library with three brilliant minds who offered a fledgling America new ways to think - Ralph Waldo Emerson in January, Henry David Thoreau in February, and Walt Whitman in March. Their writing was unconventional, shocking, and controversial at the time - it is your inheritance today. Emerson was a scholar of philosophy, religion, literature, history, and science. A prolific writer and popular lecturer, his influence on the American sense of identity cannot be underestimated. Thoreau was perceived in his lifetime as an idle ne’er-do-well.  In fact, he was a dedicated scholar and deeply committed scientist. His days spent walking culminated in copious field notes, journal entries, essays, and books. Remember those vivid and brutal characters in Scorsese’s Gangs of New York?  Whitman knew those guys. He was on the streets rather than protected by the idyllic peace of Concord. His brash, physical, and deeply spiritual poetry brought a nascent American literature a genuine American voice. Attend one evening or all three.  We will read, discuss, wonder, and depart with a deeper appreciation of our identity and inheritance as Americans. Facilitator Renee Silvus is a local educator, therapist, and business owner. She has 17-years worth of experience teaching English to high school students. Guests staying at Hotel McCall may attend at no cost and may drop in. Registration Required
