                               options: [ .CurveEaseInOut],
                               animations: {

                                self.Loading.alpha=0.0;
                                self.Loading.alpha=1.0;
                                self.Loading.alpha=0.0;
                                self.Loading.alpha=1.0;
                                self.Loading.alpha=0.0;

        },
                               completion: { finished in
                                print("Save done")

                                self.Loading.hidden=true


    })

If you want to repeat your animation block 5 times, try doing:

UIView.animateWithDuration(1.0,
                           delay: 0.5,
                           options: [ .CurveEaseInOut, .Repeat],
                           animations: {

UIView.setAnimationRepeatCount(5)

                            self.Loading.alpha=0.0;
                            self.Loading.alpha=1.0;
                            self.Loading.alpha=0.0;
                            self.Loading.alpha=1.0;
                            self.Loading.alpha=0.0;

    },
                           completion: { finished in
                            print("Save done")

                            self.Loading.hidden=true


})
