I do my utmost to maintain a leader-follower balance, therefore inform me of your intentions as early as possible to make the necessary arrangements.

Principiantes October Cycle

Nathalie is happy to announce the start of a new Principiantes course with a different structure. Principiantes will now be set over an indefinite length of time going over different elements without classes repeating themselves. You will apply for 4 lessons at a time (one cycle) , with the idea that you stay at Principiantes level until you start feeling that they are too easy and you can cope with them well, after which you can move to the Intermedios classes. Principiantes is intended for those who have taken the Primeros Pasos at least once.

The next Principiantes will be held as follows:

Dates
Monday 12th October 2009 at 9pm (St. Augustine Hall, Rabat)
Monday 19th October 2009 at 9pm (University Common Room)
Tuesday 27th October 2009 at 7.30pm (University Common Room)
Tuesday 3rd November 2009 at 7.30pm (St. Augustine Hall, Rabat)

Price: 40 euros (Senior citizens and full time students 30euros)

In order to book, please email to Nathalie at your earliest.
