Gainesville Engilsh Country Dancing July 4

Dear Dancers,

 

Don't forget we dance EVERY Monday evening so that you are never in doubt. This Monday, and the next Monday, July 4! Come end your holiday weekend with a bang!!

Come out and practice for the Gainesville Saturday dance in July. This Monday we will be repeating some great dances from last week and two new dances. Well actually, we'll be reintroducing "Picking Up Sticks" a great three couple dance that we did alot with Tara--come try another type of hey---a sheepskin hey!!! And coming on the 4th will be two more very exciting new dances! (an English tango~~!)

English dancing is easy on your feet; you move on your own volition--so those who get dizzy or have shoulder issues should be comfortable. Most connections are made with your eyes and you mirror your partner's moves. Come give it a try! No special clothing required.
