I have been dancing regularly in Rehovot for years! Started in Holon in 1982, stopped for several years then started again about 5-6 years ago.

I have a small tradition that wherever I am on Shabbat, after candles are lit, I sing “Shalom Aleichem” to welcome the angels of the Sabbath to the gathering.
Last Friday, two days before Rosh Hashanah, I did this in Vilnius, Lithuania. Where only 21 years ago Communism still reined and it was a punishable crime to speak or teach Hebrew. So the joy of doing this in what was the former Soviet Union is multiplied for me.
I am only here because of ISRAELI DANCING. To be able to dance and sing Hebrew music freely in lands where oppression reigned so recently.
I am grateful for this wonderful hobby and this miracle of freedom in our time,
