Israeli Folk Dancing
All over the world, from Tokyo to Paris and Melbourne to Tel Aviv, folks of all ages and cultures get together regularly to dance Israeli folk dances. Dance styles reflect the many different traditions and cultures represented in Israel: Spanish, Chasidic, Moroccan, Yemenite, Greek, etc. The Nashville Israeli Folk Dancers enjoy weekly dance sessions, workshops with renowned instructors from Israel, community outreach, parties, and performances. In Nashville, Israeli dancing means great music and exercise among the friendliest people in town!
