New Beginners West Coast Swing on Mondays,Swing and Contra Dancing this Weekend

Hello and Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,

Have a few new beginners starting West Coast Swing this Monday. If you would like to start learning West Coast Swing with other beginners, let me know. This is at 5:30 on Mondays near Fresh Market.

Our regular Monday West Coast Swing session continues with Tuck Turns. Contact me to join us.

This is a big weekend for swing dancing. UF Swing Club's Sweet Swingouts Weekend with Peter and Naomi runs this Friday through Sunday with dance parties at night and free workshops during the day. http://sweetswingouts.weebly.com

Josh's Funky February West Coast Swing Dance Party with Cathy Jean is this Saturday night at the Movement at 7:30 pm.

Saturday night is Marion County's New Year Formal Contra Dance in McIntosh from 6:45 to 10 pm on Hwy 441 at the Methodist Church, with the band Remedy Tree. My good friend Jonathan King is calling.

The monthly Sunday Contra Dance is this weekend at 4 pm at the Boltin Center.

Lots of Ballroom Dancing in Ocala at USA Dance www.usadanceocala.com and C4 Dance Academy www.facebook.com/C4DanceAcademy
