Hello and Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,

Last week we did Waltz and Rumba instead of Salsa and Swing. We will adjust to who is there and may do something other than Salsa and Swing if there are no objections. The intent for Thursday nights is for you to have fun as you become a versatile social dancer.
