We revived the group after a several year layoff,

About Israeli Dancing
Israeli Dancing is done in a completely casual environment,
friendly atmosphere and with nice people.
The emphasis is on enjoying yourself, making friends,
exercising and having a great evening.
With a history going back 4,000 years and a variety spanning
the globe, Israeli dancing is both the newest and oldest of dances,
ecompassing a huge range of styles and influences,
from the Mideast, Latin America, US, Balkans, Greece, Turkey
and more.
Music and dances cover many styles and paces.
You will enjoy everything from smooth dances to slow haunting melodies
to the sheer exuberance of flying around the floor to energetic horas
and everything in between.
