Lots of good folk dancing this week.

We are having Israeli folk dancing tonight and Monday December 19. Check back for the rest of this year.

English country dancing is tonight and every Monday for December.

International Folk Dancing is this Friday 12/16. This is their last Friday this month. Believe they are having a New Year's Eve gathering, so check with them on that.

This Saturday night is the monthly Contra dance and this Sunday is the monthly Waltz Brunch.

Sunday nights Lindy Swing Dancing 101 is from 6 to 7 followed from 7 to 9:30 with Swing and Hustle! These are small classes where you get personal attention. Once in a while, we hold a Swing dance with a mix of music for all types of Swing, so keep your eyes open for these announcements.
