Wow! A great program and well led, so you did not easily miss out on these challenging or rare dances.

This class was so much fun! The playlist of dances was fresh and interesting as well as fun. Ilai and Jake each taught a dance. As usual their teaching was easy to follow, and I enjoyed their choices.

Two hours of non-stop fun dancing and learning some of the more obscure Israeli classics with Ilai and Jake - what's not to love?!
