This week at dancing
Programming:
Come enjoy a great evening of dancing DJ'd by the talented and delightful Madeline Brock. Madeline will be assisted by Lila Luce.

Teaching:
Holly Plotner will introduce more schottis 
variations. As with last week, these variations will appeal both to beginning and experienced dancers. This will be the final week of presenting these variations, so come get them while the gettin' is good.
Kathleen McDonagh will be on hand to lead walk-throughs at 7:30, so step-step-step-hop on over!

This week's "other dance" feature:
Four on the Floor
Austin is a GREAT dance town. If you have ever wanted to venture out to the clubs (except for Saturdays of course), but did not feel comfortable dancing, or did not have a partner and did not want to show up alone, Four on the Floor provides a fun introduction to swing dancing and a segue to dance venues. The classes are great and you'll always see at least a couple of folk dance regulars.
If you play folk dance music and are not on our list of Musicians/Musical groups, please send your information to
