Hello Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,
May is a mess, in a good way. Lots of great dancing opportunities, but the schedule is all over the place.
You can check the calendar here and watch the newsletter for upcoming changes each week.
http://www.dancecalendar.info/u/event.asp?idarea=19&howmany=100&datestart=5/1/2012&datestarthigh=5/31/2012&dateend=5/1/2012

UF Swing is on break for the summer. They will be meeting after break at the Reitz Union. UF students are invited to come over to join Gainesville's swing dance community for fun dancing.
Friday, tonight are two excellent programs back to back at 308 West. First Kay teaches American Show Tango from 7 to 8 pm, $15. Doors open at 8 pm with Dubravko hosting an Argentine Tango lesson suitable for beginners and people with experience, followed by casual dancing and practice. $10, only $7 if you paid for organized dancing elsewhere during the prior week, $5 students.
Saturday night is Josh's monthly West Coast Swing Mother's Day Dance Party at 308 West, 7:30 to midnight.
Sunday Contra Dancing 101 meets at the Contra Dance at the Boltin Center for the lesson at 3:30.
If you have wanted to learn West Coast Swing and have been waiting for a beginners class, Sunday evenings in May from 6 to 7 pm is your chance. Join Swing 101 and learn the basics of West Coast Swing for the four Sundays in May. Suitable for East Coast and Lindy dancers who want to convert what they know into West Coast. $10, only $7 if you paid for organized dancing elsewhere during the prior week, $5 students.
Sunday doors open at 7 pm for 5 Rhythms guided meditative dance with visiting guest instructor Amber Ryan. Amber only comes her a couple of times a year so catch her while you can.
Monday is English County and Israeli dancing both at 7 pm at 308 West.
Tuesday join Nick and Elke for a semi-private Argentine Tango lesson, great for beginners and experienced dancers, from 6 to 7:30 for only $5.
After Tango doors open at 7:30, for Ray's Ballroom class that starts at 7:45 pm, followed by Ballroom dancing until 10 pm.
On Tuesday Richard teaches Waltz and Foxtrot at the Boltin Center from 6:45 to 9 pm.
Wednesday thru Saturday next week is the Batizado, the Brazilians yearly dance festival with their big event Saturday morning at the Boltin Center and open to the public with fantastic performances.
There probably will not be dancing Wednesday through Friday at 308 West next week, unless perhaps we may have open dancing on one of the nights starting around 9 pm. Watch next weeks' newsletter for an announcement.
Thursday Ray teaches Ballroom Bolero at By Ear Musician.
Put Sunday May 13 on your calendar to come out to 308 West for a Swing 101 Graduation Dance Party and welcome the new dancers to our community.
We are adding classes to the More You Dance the More You Save Program.
