Many thanks!! to everyone who made the M&M workshop such a success

Putting on the 2012 Murat and Michelle workshop was a massive
community effort.  Good job, everyone!

Thanks to Murat and Michelle, first of all, for being such brilliant teachers and dancers, and so generous with their time and energy.  Thanks to all the tangueros who traveled from near and far to take part. And a special thanks to so many people for all their work:
