What is Yiddish dance? Come to the dance floor, where we'll learn some of the most popular folk dance forms that developed in tandem with klezmer music, including bulgar, freylekhs, husidl and zhok. There are no complicated steps to worry about; anyone can bring Yiddish dance to life. We'll also explore traditional movement vocabulary to help you develop your own improvisatory style.
