Israeli Folk Dancing

Learn and dance the latest Israeli circle dances on Monday evenings at the Harry & Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center, 6255 N. Santa Monica Blvd., Whitefish Bay. Participants usually start with a few beginner/easier dances and then transition to more advanced dances as the evening progresses. Please be aware that the JCC is no longer offering the Israeli dance program free of charge. If you want to drop in to try a class, there is a $15 drop-in charge per class. If you decide to join the class on a more permanent basis, you can purchase a Community Membership for $180 per year. With this membership, you get 12 months of membership for all exercise classes at the JCC, meaning you pay the member price for any class you wish to take. The Israeli dance class is free to all members. Because we are dancing indoors in an unventilated space, it is required that all dancers be fully vaccinated to reduce the risk of COVID exposure to all participants. If you are not vaccinated and would still like to participate, you must wear a mask at all times while in the dance studio and maintain a distance of at least 6 feet from other dancers.
