Hello Gainesville Ocala Israeli and Folk Dancers,
Come out to Israeli Dancing this Monday May 2 at 7 at B'nai Israel after our Passover break. Next Monday May 9, help lead the Gainesville community in dancing at Hillel from 6:30 to 8:30 with live music by the Klezmer Katz for Yom Hatzmaot Israeli Independence Day, free.
Send your friends to a super easy, Beginner Israeli Folk Dance 4-week series for new dancers on June 6, 13, 20 and 27 offered thru Santa Fe College Community Education held at B'nai Israel from 7 to 8. Best time to start.
Lots of other interesting, fun folk dance opportunities this week.
Saturday April 30, at 1:00 is Brazilian Samba and Street Dance with guest instructor Rebekah at 308. If you want to move and work up a sweat, this is for you. Nobody is more lively and moves more fluidly than the Brazilians. Next week is the Batizado with performances on Saturday May 7 at the Boltin Center.
This Saturday from 3 to 9 join Rumi by Candelight with Dances of Universal Peace organized by Diana Kanoy.
You have a tough choices at 4 on Sunday May 1: take in either a Contra Dance at the Boltin Center or free beginner clogging lessons with Kelli.
Better still, learn clogging from 4 to 5, do Contra until 7 then come over to 308 West for a beginners class in Slow Lindy, a true American folk dance, at 308 West until 8:30 (half price if you go to the Contra dance) followed by an hour of Hustle! Now that is the way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
If you know people who have a fear of dancing, send them to our Social Dancing for People with Two Left Feet series on three Sunday nights, June 5, 12 and 19, from 6 to 7 at 308 West. Guaranteed to be comfortable for anyone that can walk. Offered thru Santa Fe College.
Next Saturday May 7 come out for great music, friends and dancing at our Swinging Soul Dance Party at 308 West with a lesson from 7:30 to 8:30 then dancing until 11.
Singers try out for Show Stoppers with Jessica at soundlovve@gmail.com.
JNet meets next Thursday May 5 from 5:30 to 7 at Leonardo's 706 with a speaker on Solar Electricity.
In 2005 there were 4,678 Israeli Dances according to this enjoyable article The Surprising History of Israeli Folk Dancing.
