Learn Lindy, Swing Workshop Weekend, Tango Milongas, Advanced Contra, Santa Fe College Community Ed Registration
Hello and Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
Beginning West Coast Swing in a semi-private group with Andy this Monday from 6 to 7 pm, near Fresh Market. Contact me if you would like to attend. $15
Learn Lindy Swing Dancing
Lindy is possibly the most upbeat, least serious of all partner dances. As one of my teachers said, "There is no wrong in swing, if you can lead it and she can follow it." If you want to just have fun dancing to music that makes you happy, Lindy is the dance for you.
Sign up now via Santa Fe College Community Education for a six week series in Lindy, starts April 9 from 7:10 to 8:10 pm at Gainesville High School. You will learn the original swing dance and quite useful to know today. You need to have at least some experience dancing, any kind of dance experience will do, it does not have to be swing.
Novice dancers can sign up for Beginning Swing Dancing which takes place on the same nights from 6 to 7 pm.
Register now via Santa Fe College Community Education Spring Dance Classes, www.sfcollege.edu/cied/communityed
You can also sign up for Ray and Eileen's Ballroom sessions as well as two other series I will be teaching in Hawthorne:
- Line Dancing on Tuesdays at 6 pm in Hawthorne for 4 weeks. Starts April 7, 2015
- Slow Partner Dancing for beginners on Tuesdays at 7 pm in Hawthorne for 4 weeks. Starts Arpil 7, 2015
For those that already know Lindy, join the UF Swing Club for their Sweet Swingouts Workshop Weekend, with classes and dancing Friday, Saturday and Sunday. www.floridaswingdancing.com/SweetSwingouts

Dance Quotes
Consciousness expresses itself through creation. This world we live in is the dance of the creator. Dancers come and go in the twinkling of an eye but the dance lives on. On many an occasion when I am dancing, I have felt touched by something sacred. In those moments, I felt my spirit soar and become one with everything that exists. ~ Michael Jackson
