Intro to Solo Jazz Dancing

Wed 11 Aug 2021, 6-7 pm. Develop the skills and confidence to dance to swing music (such as lindy hop and charleston) with your own flair! This session is an introduction to some basic moves and ideas in solo jazz dancing. Learning to dance solo will help you express yourself individually, while jamming with others, and in partner dancing! And not just on the dance floor... anywhere you hear swing music! ?? I hope it will inspire you to continue on a beautiful and fun journey of creativity! Where: UF Reitz Union Dance Studio When: August 11 6-7 PM. UF Reitz Union Dance Studio, UF Campus, Gainesville.

Swingin in the Streets

Sat 14 Aug 2021, 7-10 pm. Come out and swing dance in the streets outside The Bull downtown! The dancing is free, but please support the event by buying drinks at The Bull if you can. Are you new to swing dancing? Need a refresher after all this time away? We've got you covered! There will be a beginner's level class at 7pm, followed by a social dance with plenty of jazz to swing to! Dance with your friends or with everyone, whatever you are comfortable with. We love partnering up with new dancers, so don't be afraid to ask for a dance! If you don't feel comfortable partner dancing, you can do some solo jazz. We will have someone to teach you a few moves. Masks? Please follow CDC guidelines. Parking: There is parking at the SW downtown parking garage near Loosey’s. I don’t think it’s free anymore. However there may be free parking around or near this parking garage. The Bull, 18 SW 1 Avenue, Gainesville, 32601. Shelley MacLean, Shannon Sechrest. UF Swing Dance Club - [facebook][events]
