WCS Tonight, Tango Friday, Swing Saturday, All U Can Dance in July

Hello Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
 
Have changed the format of this newsletter to try to give you the information more efficiently. For details of programs and our full area dance schedule, see
 
This newsletter serves two purposes:
1. As a general newsletter for the social dance community in the Gainesville and Ocala area.
2. As a specific newsletter for my dance programs.
 
Most of the other dance groups have their own newsletters, which you should sign up for if you attend their functions.
 
In this top section, you will find information about my dance programs as well as things out of the ordinary about other programs. I will try not to repeat information about other programs, except to call your attention to special occasions.
 
ALL U CAN DANCE continues in July, where you can dance 5 nights a week for as little as $35 for the month, only $25 if you paid for monthly dancing elsewhere.
 
Expanding your dance repertoire is a great way to improve all your dancing. You have a great opportunity in July to learn Argentine Tango. The Tango people have done the best study of balance and body mechanics. Learning Tango, besides being an end in itself, will help all your dancing by helping you to better understand how to move your body.
 
Come out tonight Thursday from 8 to 10 pm (or later) for West Coast Swing practice and dancing. Free for ALL U CAN DANCE members. Only $5 general, $3 students for this last Thursday in June.
 
Come out Friday June 29 to 308 West for Argentine Tango lesson, practice and dancing from 8 to midnight. Free for students and ALL U CAN DANCE members, otherwise just $5 tonight.
 
Saturday night at 8:30 join Chad for Bid Daddy's Bodacious Summer Swing Thing. Luau attire. Only $5.
 
July starts Sunday with a new month of ALL U CAN DANCE. Come out to 308 West for Contra 101 at 5, Swing 101 at 6, Swing+ at 7 and at 8:15 Hustle!
 
Mondays we have English Country and Israeli Dancing at the same time, at 7 pm.
 
Tuesdays join Nick from 6 to 7:30 for beginning Argentine Tango and practice for those with experience. Richard teaches East Coast Swing.
 
Thursdays in July, West Coast Swing practice and dancing continues from 8 to 10 pm, or so at 308 West. Ray teaches Viennese Waltz at By Ear Musician.
 
Friday July 13 start beginning Argentine Tango with Andrea Pham. pham.andrea@gmail.com.
 
Some days we need more men and some days we need more women. We need more women for Argentine Tango on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturday nights. We need more men for Swing on Sundays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturday nights.
 
Happy Dancing,
Andy

Longest Day of the Year All U Can Swing Dance, Argentine Tango

Hello Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
 
Hello {!firstname_fix} and Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
 
Argentine Tango is both the easiest and most difficult of dances. Because Tango is so slow and the basic steps so simple, you can start navigating the dance floor your very first day. Because the interaction can be so sophisticated in close embrace, the challenges are endless. You have a bunch of great options to learn Argentine Tango, which will help all your dancing. Take advantage.
 
Come out tonight Friday June 22 for three dance sessions at 308 West, starting with Kay's Samba class from 7:30 to 8:30, followed immediately by casual Argentine Tango practice and dancing and at 10:30 a Salsa and Latin Dance Social until 2 am. Friday Tango is free for those attending Kay's class, those staying for the Salsa social, students and ALL U CAN DANCE members, otherwise just $5.
 
You can also go to Swing and Sway tonight at the Boltin Center from 8 to 11.
 
Saturday night come out for our Longest Day of the Year All U Can Swing Dance Social. Kathie reminded me her first dance was the Longest Day of the Year Dance three years ago. There will be a Lindy Swing lesson from 7:30 to 8:30 with dancing until 11. The music will be a mix with at least half suitable for West Coast Swing. Free for ALL U CAN DANCE members.
 
Also Saturday night is a Ballroom Dance at By Ear Musician with Ray and Eileen.
 
Sunday we need men at 308 West to join us for Contra 101 at 5 pm and Swing 101 at 6 pm. Stay afterwards for Swing for people with some experience and then Hustle! Free for ALL U CAN DANCE members.
 
Join Nick and a nice group for Argentine Tango 101 from 6 to 7:30 in the small room. All levels welcome. Just $5 in June, $3 for students, free for ALL U CAN DANCE members.
 
David moved his Tango class to Tuesdays at 7:30, only a few blocks from 308 West. After Nick's class, go over to David's for free Tango practice. david.chayes@gmail.com
 
Or for variety, after Nick's class on Tuesdays, also only a few blocks away, go over to Richard's class, this month on Cha Cha, at the Boltin Center.
 
Also on Tuesdays Ray teaches Ballroom Dancing at 308 West at 7:45 followed by social dancing around 8:45.
 
Wednesday Judi teaches Two Step and then West Coast Swing from 7 to 10.
 
Thursday join Ray and Eileen for Hustle specialty class.
 
Also Thursday, come out to 308 West for West Coast Swing casual practice and dancing at 308 West from 8 to 10 pm. Free for ALL U CAN DANCE members.
 
Next Saturday, June 30 is Chad Big Daddy's Bodacious Summer Swing Thing.
 
Andrea Pham starts a new beginner Argentine Tango class in July. Contact Andrea at pham.andrea@gmail.com.

Article: Taking Care of the Facility at 308 West
 
You can help your dance teachers by helping to set up and put things away before and after your dance sessions.
 
Here are some guidelines:
 
1. Big Room Dance Floor: you should leave the dance floor clear unless you know the next group needs the room arranged some other way. You should sweep the dance floor before and after your session.
 
2. Trash: you should empty the trash when you leave, put in new trash bags and take the trash with you.
 
3. AC: when you arrive you can put the AC on 70. When you leave put the AC up to 80. Only use the buttons on the outside of the case to change the AC. Do not open the AC and mess with the program.
 
4. Upstairs Stairwell Door: you should leave the upstairs stairwell door shut and unlocked, so people can get in and so that the AC does not go down the stairs.
 
5. Chairs, Small Tables and Lamps: you should leave chairs, tables and lamps nicely arranged in the foyer and front two rooms so people can use them.
 
6. Water, Bottles and Cups: you should bring your own water bottles to be eco-friendly. Do put out a pitcher of water, with cups and a marker so people can write their names on the cups, and of course, put away after your session.
 
7. Paper Towels, Toilet, Paper and Soap: you should replenish the bathrooms as needed. Supplies are in the small storage room.
 
8. Carpeted Area: you should vacuum the carpeted area as needed, before and after your session.
 
9. Lights: shut off all lights when you leave.
 
10. Transition Between Classes: the studio and parking area has limited accomodations. Be aware of the transition between sessions and accomodate the people before and after you by freeing up space as needed.
 
We all appreciate your assistance.

Article: Taking Care of the Facility at 308 West
 
You can help your dance teachers by helping to set up and put things away before and after your dance sessions.
 
Here are some guidelines:
 
1. Big Room Dance Floor: you should leave the dance floor clear unless you know the next group needs the room arranged some other way. You should sweep the dance floor before and after your session.
 
2. Trash: you should empty the trash when you leave, put in new trash bags and take the trash with you.
 
3. AC: when you arrive you can put the AC on 70. When you leave put the AC up to 80. Only use the buttons on the outside of the case to change the AC. Do not open the AC and mess with the program.
 
4. Upstairs Stairwell Door: you should leave the upstairs stairwell door shut and unlocked, so people can get in and so that the AC does not go down the stairs.
 
5. Chairs, Small Tables and Lamps: you should leave chairs, tables and lamps nicely arranged in the foyer and front two rooms so people can use them.
 
6. Water, Bottles and Cups: you should bring your own water bottles to be eco-friendly. Do put out a pitcher of water, with cups and a marker so people can write their names on the cups, and of course, put away after your session.
 
7. Paper Towels, Toilet, Paper and Soap: you should replenish the bathrooms as needed. Supplies are in the small storage room.
 
8. Carpeted Area: you should vacuum the carpeted area as needed, before and after your session.
 
9. Lights: shut off all lights when you leave.
 
10. Transition Between Classes: the studio and parking area has limited accomodations. Be aware of the transition between sessions and accomodate the people before and after you by freeing up space as needed.
 
We all appreciate your assistance.

2. Swing Dancing 101 with the basics of West Coast Swing - 6 weeks, Sundays 6 to 7 at 308 West

If you have already been coming to other classes of the same type, you can just drop in. New people should sign up via Santa Fe College.
 
You know Sunday nights we do Hustle! This month, Ray's speciality class on Thursdays is Hustle. Go out there, get some Hustle in you and come out and dance with us on Sunday nights, around 8 or 8:30 to 9:30. It is really fun. Come at 6 or 7 for Swing first.
 
Thursday nights we have West Coast Swing practice and dancing from 8 to 10 pm. You can do Hustle to much of the music as well. If anyone wants to come over after Ray's class to practice Hustle, we can stay late.
 
Are you ready to learn the Argentine Tango? You have three nights that cater to beginners, as well as to people with some experience. This is a great opportunity for you to learn the Tango, which will help all your dancing, in a casual, fun atmosphere and for an amount that is ridiculously inexpensive. Tuesday nights with Nick and Elke at 308 West, Wednesdays with David and Thuy at a private home and Fridays at 308 West with Burcin, Irene and the UF Tango Club.
