Thu 31 Oct, 6:30-9:30 pm. Congregation B'nai Israel, around the left side in the social hall, 3830 NW 16 Blvd, Gainesville, 32605. Andrew Weitzen, 352-327-3672. Swing Dance Gainesville - [email][events]
Come out for a Halloween Party with social dancing. Costumes welcome, not required.
All levels. No partner needed.
Refreshments provided. You can bring refreshments as long as they are kosher. If packaged, they must have a kosher marking like a K or OU. Fresh produce is fine. No meat.
Dance format and type of music to be determined by who is there. Our typical format is different dances each hour, with just enough instruction to keep you moving. We rotate partners each song, so everyone dances with everyone, and everyone of the same gender role dances the same amount. Rotating is not required.
For the party, I am thinking about trying something a little different, playing one or two types of songs each half hour or 45 minutes. Depending on how many people are there, possibly per rotation, so everyone gets to dance each type of song with each person.
If by the half hour, tentative schedule might be something like:
6:30 pm Salsa and Cha Cha
7:00 pm Bachata, Rumba and Nightclub Two Step
7:30 pm Hustle and West Coast Swing
8:00 pm Lindy Swing, Foxtrot, Country Two Step
8:30 pm Waltz
9:15 pm Argentine Tango
Couples friendly, you rotate as much as you want or not at all.
Singles friendly, no partner needed.
Per Person
$10 per night, or
$5 student, or
$5 Argentine Tango practice only, students free
