Dance Class

We regularly hold a community (Israeli folk) dance class on Tuesday nights at 7:30 pm. Currently, we are meeting on the Reitz Union Colonade at the University of Florida campus. However, the location and times are subject to change, so be sure to check here first to see where and when dance class will be each week.  (Admission is always free!)


We would like to acknowledge and thank the MJF (Messianic Jewish Fellowship) at UF
for graciously allowing our "Unit-E" Dance Team to use the dance class time
at the Reitz Union as a time to practice our performance dances.


We're in the newspaper!
The Gainesville Sun printed
