090306 West Coast Swing, Hustle

Hello Gainesville Area Dancers and Friends,

This Sunday night at GDMA we have West Coast Swing and Hustle
dancing. Beginners West Coast Swing starts at 6:30.

I am in South Florida this week and went to Billy Fajardo
and Katie Marlow's Hustle class. I will bring back what I
learned, but essentially, we are right on track.

They have about 30 to 40 people and classes two or three
times a week, plus monthly socials. With all that, I think
we hold up pretty well. Billy constantly yelled at the ladies
to follow and at the men not to push and pull on the ladies,
problems we do not have.

Overall all, I think our little group has a better idea of
what we are trying to accomplish than they do. The students
are more focused on steps rather than communication. You are a
lot easier to dance with than they are. Keep up the good progress.

Happy Dancing,
Andy

From Passover to Shavout, journey with the ancient Israelites in spirit,
as you learn to dance.

Have fun, meet people, get exercise, enjoy great music and get a taste
