Hello Gainesville Area Dancers and Friends,

We got about half way through this video and will continue
following the same program this Sunday in West Coast Swing.

If you have any interest in going to the Tampa Bay Classic
on November 5 to 8, let me know. See www.tampabayclassic.com

Am trying to find good dates for starting a beginner
West Coast Swing series and a beginner Hustle series.
Not sure which to do first. If you are interested in
either, let me know.

We had five couples and a good time for Israeli Partner Dancing.
Thanks to Kathie for hosting and those attending.

Week 2 of 3 for beginning clogging is this week.
See below for more info.

See www.imperialdancestudio.net for details about:

- Country Two Step class on Monday September 21
- Benefit Dance for St. Jude's Children Research Hospital

Make plans now for the Herald Hunt on November 29 in Miami.

Article: Progress

After seven years of Tango, my teacher said to me tonight,
you start your step with good energy, but your finish is weak.

Geez, how long is this going to take?

Try not to worry about your progress.

Someone new is bound to start after you,
and then there will be someone worse than you.

If you hang around long enough, most of the good people will
have moved on and you will be one of the best ones left.

There may be a long way to go, but you have come a long way.

I was hiking at Great Basin National Park.
You walk for a long time and the mountain does not seem
any closer. You have to look back to see how far you have come.

Sometimes you get discouraged when you feel your progress
is slow. I have attached a collage to cheer you up.
