ABOUT ISRAELI DANCE

                       

 

 Israeli dance classes are lively and fun! People of all ages, beginners and expert dancers all dance together in an ever-expanding repertoire of  dances.

Because Israel is made up of many cultures, the music is based on world music themes. There are many variations of moods, melodies and rhythms and the dances contain a variation in style... from Latin salsa to waltz and polka; from hip-hop to rock'n'roll; from Irish to Yemenite styles. Every year professional choreographers  create about 300 new Israeli dances usually from the Israeli charts. There are approx 4,000 dances which have been created over the last 30 years.

 The social experience

As well as dancing, a regular dance class (Harkada) creates opportunities for lots of socialising, friendship and a good chat. Participating regularly in a Harkada is healthy for both the body and mind .

Enjoy good music, good exercise and good fun!

Fitness

Israeli dancing is also a good way of keeping fit. A weekly Harkada class combines high impact activity with slower, more controlled movement. This contributes not only to one's fitness level but also to one's mental and emotional well-being - much more fun than the gym!

Help! I'm a beginner

Dont worry! Come early and we will teach you the basic steps and dances.

Wear trainers/dance shoes and comfortable casual clothes.

We'll always make you feel welcome - you don't need to bring a partner (but why not bring along some friends?)

Come regularly and you'll build up your repertoire within a few weeks.
