Hugs, How to Get Good, New Series for Beginners, Bachata, Sunday Contra Dance
Hello and Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
How do you get good at dancing? What is the secret? There is no secret. Dance more. That is the secret.
Going to one dance class a week for one hour is not enough. You will take forever to learn to dance. To make progress, you need to go at least twice a week, preferably for two hours each time. Or, you can practice at home. When you put in the time, you will soon find yourself at another level.
Santa Fe College Community Education (SFC) dance classes start next week. Sign up here www.sfcollege.edu/cied/communityed
Friday night the UF Swing Club is dancing in the Reitz Union at 8:30 pm, free. Saturday Baila Caliente Social is at Studio C, 1925 NW 2 Street at 10 pm, $6. Sunday the UF Tango Club is dancing in the Reitz Union at 6:15 pm, free.
Sunday is the monthly afternoon Contra Dance at the Boltin Center at 4 pm with Waltzing at 2:45.
On Thursdays in June, Ray and Eillen are teaching Bachata at Rena's Ballroom.
