Hello Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
Lots of great swing dancing this week. Starting Friday night with the UF Swing Club.
Saturday night is our big dance. Come out for our First Swinging Soul Saturday Night Swing Dance Party at 308 West. This is the first one in a long time. There will be a mix of mostly slower music suitable for West Coast and all kinds of Swing with some Cha Cha, Hustle, Salsa and some surprises.
Listen to some selections from the music mix.

To sign up for the dance on Facebook and invite others. You can also sign up for the Gainesville Dance Facebook group there, for future Facebook invites. This is different than the Dance Gainesville group, but we are all friends.

308 West is in the old Firestone Building located immediately to the east of the Seagle Building on University Avenue. We are upstairs. You can park in the Seagle Building lot for $2 per night. Get a parking permit from us when you come inside. You can park underneath or on 3rd street for free.
Sunday the Stephen White workshop at the Eagles Club is open. Get over there from 3 to 4 for instruction from a professional dancer and stay for the dance party.

You will have to wait until Sunday for Tango.
UF Tango Club was in session Thursday, not tonight Friday.
Tango Pavadita meets from 2 to 5 at 308 West. This is for all levels. Beginners get personal attention. This is somewhat informal and an opportunity for instruction, practice and dancing.

Barbie's excellent Basic Two-Step continues at Richard's class at the Boltin Center.
Hustle! starts Sunday February 13.
Hustle does not start this week February 6 due to the Super Bowl. This Saturday night's Swing Dance counts as your fourth session, if you want the package of 4 sessions for the price of 3.
Magnificent Buenos Aires dancers, but what is with the light hair?

Happy Dancing,
Andy
