Hi Everyone,
Yet another nice session last week. Thanks to all who came out.
 
On behalf of Susan and myself, we'd like to wish you all a healthy, happy and sweet New Year.  Shana Tova!  And on that note, I am happy to bring this happy video back:
 
Dip Your Apple - Fountainheads
 
And we also wish you a Gamar Tov.
 
I'd like to tell you about a new feature in the newsletter.  I am calling it "Ads From Our Community Members."  The intent is to let our people know about things our members want to promote.  (I am not charging for this service.) If you go to the end of the newsletter, you will see our inaugural ad from Lauren Gallagher as she opens her skin care business.  If you have something you want to promote, please let me know.
 
Looking forward to seeing you all Thursday night!
  
CYA on the dance floor,
Phil

Videos of the Week
A word about the links in the newsletter.  Sometimes they are active. All you have to do is click on them.  And sometimes you need to copy the link into your browser.  I do believe though that all of the links are working.
 
From last week:
   
 
We continued to work on this circle dance by Yaron Malichi which fell by the wayside a little bit
Derech Hashalom
 
Here is the hot new circle dance from Yaron Ben-Simchon with Yaron doing the demoing himself.  There are a number of videos of this dance out there but it is nice seeing the choreographer himself doing it.
Hi Rak Rotza Lirkod
 
And just for fun we brought back this cute couple dance by Tuvia Tischler
Perach Leili
 
For those who want to do some homework, here is the  new challenging circle dance from Shmulik Gov-Ari recently presented at Machol Europa:
Leili
And for fun, here is a London group doing this dance is taught and led by Caroline:
Leili - Danced in London
  
 
Dances From Penny's Session:
 
Enjoy this interesting video of Shlomo Maman, a classic circle dance,
Gvanim


And here is Yisrael Shikir dancing his classic dance, Kol Shana, that Penny always brings back at this time of year.
Kol Shana


And as we prepare for Yom Kippur, we always do this classic by Shmulik Gov-Ari,
Kol Nedarai
 
A circle dance by Oren Shmuel
Amen Lamilim
 
Here is a pretty circle dance by Gadi Bitton,
Bechol Asher Telchi
 
 
 
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
For those who try to find Israeli dance videos on line, I wanted to make sure you know that you can find many of them at:
 
http://www.rokdim.co.il/youtube/rokdim_youtube.asp
 
You can watch the whole video there on the site.  And if you want to download it, you can make arrangements to purchase it there.  I do believe that for the most part, once a dance makes it on to the Rokdim site, it is less likely to change than dances published only in other places. This is not an absolute rule of the universe, but in general I believe it is so. Just wanted to make sure you were aware of this resource.
 
As always, enjoy!
