Hello Gainesville Ocala Israeli and Folk Dancers,
This newsletter is out early to remind you of a few events: Saturday night is a Contra Dance and Sunday morning is the first Vintage Waltz Brunch in a while, with Randy and Annette teaching. I will be leading a Nordic Waltz mixer.
And tonight, Thursday Anahata Iradah is at Dances of Universal Peace. According to the announcement, she is "a versatile and gifted musician and teacher, a composer, songwriter, mediator and documentary film producer. She is an accomplished leader of the Dances of Universal Peace with years of dedication in Sacred & Ceremonial Music & Dance. She brings depth, humor, sensitivity, exuberance & magic to the experience"
Join us at Hustle! on Sunday night at 7:00 at 308 West.
Israeli Dancing is back to the regular time 7:00 on Monday.
English Country Dancing is on Monday at 308 West. They had a big turnout of 20 people this week.
Save the First Saturday Night of the Month for our Swinging Soul Dance Party coming up next on March 5.
Do not let the cost keep you away from dancing. We have plenty of things for you to do if you would like to volunteer your time.
Happy Dancing,
Andy
