Hello and Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,

Tonight, Friday Kay teaches American Show Tango from 7 to 8. Argentine Tango with UF club follows from 8 to 11.

Tango Pavadita has a milonga this, the third Saturday, instead of the fourth this month.

There is a Contra dance at the Boltin Center on Saturday night.

Sunday morning come out for the monthly Vintage Waltz Brunch. Beginners are assisted.

Sunday we need men for Contra 101 and Swing 101. Come out early to 308 West, at 5 pm and stay for the whole night. Contra 101 is from 5 to 6, Swing 101 from 6 to 7, experienced Swing 7 to 8:15 about and then until 9:30, Hustle!

Argentine Tango 101 is on Tuesday night from 6 to 7:30 at 308 West with Nick in the small room in the back. Experienced Tango dancers are also welcome. This is just $5 in June, $3 for students.

On Tuesdays, anyone who pays for English Country Dancing, can join us in the back for Israeli Dancing for free.

For Thursday Swing practice, last week we had all men, yesterday we had all women. Maybe next week men and women will show up on the same day.
