Like an international spy, everyone should own a tuxedo and know how to dance, both of which come in handy when dialing 911 at a ball from one's shoe phone. Learn just how fancy footwork can be with today's Groupon to Tango Che, valid at two locations in Edgewater and Batavia. Choose between the following options:
- For $35, you get 10 group tango classes for one (a $180 value).
- For $150, you get 4 private lessons for two (a $350 value).
Edgewater classes are Sunday, Tuesday, and Friday; Batavia classes are Wednesday night.
Daniel Noce, a native Argentinian dancer and internationally renowned tango instructor with 20 years of experience, and Ramona Nita, also a highly experienced dancer and instructor, lead a five-day schedule of authentic Argentine tango classes at Tango Che. Feet stride along to the fundamental steps of social Argentine tango during group classes, which teach students skills that keep partners' feet and one's ego from feeling stepped upon on the dance floor. Giving personal attention to each student during group sessions, instructors impart refined techniques while energizing prancing pupils with their unbridled enthusiasm for the dance. As students get to know their peers, they earn dance compatriots for both class time and the studio's Friday social dance sessions. During private couples' instruction, dance doctors train their focus on one set of partners, tailoring lessons to the couples' skill levels so twosomes can achieve maximum progress while preparing for wedding dances, social outings, or private flash mobs.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Advertising Soup
In this economy, soup isn’t going to sell itself. Only the perfect commercial is going to get those cans flying off the shelves. But what are the elements of a good soup ad?
The setting can make someone immediately yearn for a bowl of the hot stuff. Good settings include:
• A wealthy person’s farmhouse glowing warmly in a snowy wooded area (farmhouse should show no signs of actual farming)
• A small but cozy shack standing on a craggy cliff over a violent sea
• A bread factory
The main character is the viewer’s connection to the soup. It should be:
• A loving yet endearingly inept dad. He is in decent shape, not too handsome, and wearing a sweater and/or tucked-in collared shirt.
• A Victorian sailor’s wife. She is pale and beautiful, yet jagged. It has been a hard life.
• A bunch of working-class bread-factory guys who are hungry but tired of all this dry bread.
The story of the ad then whips the potential customers into a soup-eating frenzy by depicting:
• The dad’s son playing in the snow. The dad wants his son to love him but he cannot prepare a meal on his own. He makes the son soup, and the two bond over a game of checkers in front of a fireplace. Mom does not interfere.
• The wife gazes longingly at the sea during a windy, daytime rainstorm. She misses her husband’s warm, hearty arms but finds solace in a thick chowder that possesses those same qualities. Just as she finishes her bowl the husband kicks down the door. He has returned from his voyage and he has brought her many exotic hats.
• The bread-factory guys make some soup and have a crazy party wherein they dip the dry crusty breads into the steaming bowls with much joviality and merrymaking. What a day they’ve had.
