Hi Dancers!
I will be teaching for for if the next five weeks (broken up by the 5th Sunday party at the end of the month). Attached are links to three of the dances I will be teaching, although not all at once. (The videos have the teach first, followed by the dance):
1. Yemei Hatom (Mali and Moshe, 2006)

2. Ben Adam (Dror Davidi and Gadi Bitton, 2025)

3. Daroma (Jonathan Cher and Rochelle Berman, 2025)

The third one, in particular, is a little tricky. I would definitely make a point to watch the video ahead of time -- not to learn the dance, but just to familiarize yourself with it.

COMING SOON! ADVANCED BEGINNER ISRAELI DANCE SERIES – STARTS SUNDAY, JUNE 1
This summer, Boulder Israeli Dance is excited to offer an Advanced Beginner Israeli dance class series for the first time! Class is drop-in, no registration required. Specifics below…
Classes will expand upon basic steps – like grapevine, Yemenites, turns, and pivots – to help participants get comfortable with a wider range of step patterns and the more elaborated choreographies of today’s Israeli dancing. Teaching will be geared to dancers who are relatively new to Israeli dance, and is guaranteed to help move you up to the next level of this wonderful dance form!
We will start with popular circle dances like Ashrei Ha’ish, Bepundak Beiti, and Belailot Hakayitz; and cool line dances like Jaimale, Numa Numa, and Un Poquito; and from there move on to further fun dances at the advanced beginner to easy intermediate level.
Hope to see you there! Mark your calendars now!
WHAT: Ongoing drop-in Advanced Beginner Israeli dance series. No registration required.
WHEN: Sundays 5:45-6:45 pm, June - August, 2025. First class is Sunday, June 1. Please arrive a little early: Class will start and end on time!
WHERE: North Studio at the Avalon Ballroom
COST: $7/session by cash, check, or Venmo. Includes admission to regular Boulder Israeli dance teaching (intermediate level) which follows Sundays 7-8 pm in Sodal Hall, and Open Dancing 8-10 pm.
