Sat 30 Jun 2018, 2 pm. Hello Gainesville, as the Social Director of Florida Swing Dance Club, I will be hosting group private lessons for the summer. My goal is to offer members of the club a place where they can grow their skill and gain individualized lessons to help them do so. I have been giving private lessons for about a year now, and have thoroughly enjoyed doing so.
Come get to know the members of the club. I am very excited to see you there.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me however is convenient to you. Gainesville. Free. UF Swing Dance Club - [facebook][email][events]
