Hello Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
The UF Swing Club is not in session Friday.
Try Swing and Sway Friday night at the Boltin Center from 8 to 11, $9. Nice floor and good music, but you will need to bring some people with you to dance with.
Tango Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 308 West. Friday night with UF Tango Club.
Saturday night and Sunday brunch with Tango Pavadita. If you are from out of town, the fourth Saturday of the month is a great weekend to join us and meet people from all over North Florida.
Join us Sunday night for a lot of fun with Hustle!
Next Thursday April 28 is Christian's monthly Balboa class. Try something new.
You can still catch Richard's Waltz class on Tuesday at the Boltin Center. This is useful for the Waltz brunches we hold once a month at 308 West.
Learn Lindy Hop, the most versatile and the mother of all Swing dances, four Sunday nights beginning May 1 from 7 to 8:30 at 308 West.
Saturday April 30 is Brazilian Samba with a visiting guest instructor at 308 West. We also have Samba on Wednesday nights. If you want to move to music, try Samba. Salsa makes Salsa and Zumba look tame.
Coming up Saturday May 7 is our next Swinging Soul Dance Party at 308 West.
Free Tango practice on Wednesdays in a private home downtown. Contact David at david.chayes@gmail.com
Support fellow dancer Will Tucker and have a rousing good time at the Thomas Center on Thursday ta 6:30 or Saturdays at 11:00 am at The Commedia Talse of King Arthur. Free through May 21.
Can you sing. Try out for the Glee of Gainesville. Contact Jessica at soundlovve@gmail.com

Mark your calendar for June:
If you know someone with two left feet who you have always wanted to get dancing, we have just the class for them, Social Dancing for People with Two Left Feet, offered through Santa Fe College, for the first three Sundays in June. Guaranteed to make anyone who can walk, feel comfortable dancing.
Also offered via Santa Fe College, for the first four Mondays in June, dance to a higher purpose and join our novice Israeli Dancing Class at B'nai Israel. This is the best time to start, with others who are also starting for the first time.
On Sunday June 26, Josh Angel is bringing two-time national champion Patti Jobst to 308 West for West Coast Swing private lessons, workshop and dancing.

- Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything. - Mary Welsh Hemingway
- In every life we have some trouble. When you worry you make it double. Don't worry, be happy. Put a smile on your face. Don't worry, it will soon pass, whatever it is. Don't worry, be happy. ~ Bobby McFerrin
