Hello Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
This newsletter is out early to make sure you know about Christian's Balboa class, tonight, Thursday. This is only on the fourth Thursday of the month. Balboa is a companion to Swing dancing. Come out for a fun and interesting evening. If you signed up for Hustle! for this month, you can come to Balboa for free.
Saturday night are two main events, Richard's Mostly Swing Party at the Boltin Center and the fourth Saturday of the month is Tango Pavadita main monthly milonga at 308 West. As I proved last month, and intend to do again, if you start early, you can do both and will be well rewarded.
If you missed last weekend's lovely Vintage Waltz Brunch (and my Nordic Waltz mixer), you can redeem yourself this weekend. Sleep in and return to 308 West for a delicious Sunday morning Tango Brunch.
Come out Sunday nights at 7 for Hustle! This dance is too much fun.
East Coast Swing revives at Richard's Tuesday class in March.
Next Wednesday is Josh's West Coast Swing party at the Eagles Club. Have a great time and get warmed up for ...
Next Saturday night March 5 for your First Saturday Night of the Month Swinging Soul Dance Party at 308 West. This will start with a lesson on Mastering the Side Pass, which forms the basis for most moves in Swing dancing. Transform your dancing with some simple techniques to make your side pass flow effortlessly.
