Hello and Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
Santa Fe College Community Education Spring Session is now open for registration. My sessions are:
1. Super Simple Swing 101 - ideal for new dancers, goes super slow, super easy, to mostly slower music, no experience needed whatsoever, no partner needed, we do rotate partners but rotating is not required. If this is too slow for you, you can switch to Beginning West Coast Swing. For 6 weeks on Thursdays from 6 to 7 pm at Gainesville High School.
2. Beginning West Coast Swing - everyone of all levels is welcome to take this class. This is a beginner class. This class will go at a pace suitable for those that have taken Super Simple Swing 101. You will learn the basics of West Coast Swing so you can go to the swing dances and have fun dancing. For 6 weeks on Thursdays from 7 to 8:30 pm at Gainesville High School.
3. Senior Line Dancing - beginners from 11:30 to 12:30, intermediate from 12:30 to 1:30. At the Senior Center on NW 34 Street. Have fun and improve your health dancing to a wide variety of music. This is listed under Senior Classes not Dance.

Ray and Eileen are teaching these classes via SFC, all good for beginners.

Tonight the UF Argentine Tango Club is hosting a milonga at the Hippodrome. The public is invited. This is a lovely event in a classy setting. Attend if you can. If you do not know tango, stop by to watch for a bit and check out this elegant dance scene.

Sunday afternoon is the 5th Sunday Advanced Contra Dance at the Boltin Center.
Next week starts a new month of dancing, with the usual schedule. Mt Israeli Dancing strats back up on Monday April 8. On Thursdays in April Bob Rogers is teaching Hustle and Ray and Eileen are teaching Bolero.
We always need to be growing our community or it will shrink. Encourage newcomers to sign up for the beginning classes via Santa Fe College Community Education. Here are flyers you can print and hand out if you like.
