"We are looking forward to this workshop, since our last weekend workshop took place five years ago. Dany always brings us wonderful new dances from Israel.  He is a wonderful teacher and is incredibly patient," said Debbie Meitin, leader of the Israeli dance program at the JCC for more than 25 years.

Saturday night is a dance party with some teaching, beginning at 7 p.m. until 11 p.m. On Sunday there will be three teaching sessions, beginning at 9 a.m. (with bagels at 8:30 a.m.) and running through 5 p.m., including a review and pot luck dinner. The cost is $60 for the entire workshop, $25 for Saturday only and $45 for Sunday only. For these prices, please register by March 24. After that day, all prices will be $10 more.
