From widely-recognized Jewish dances like the “Hora” and Israeli folk dance to lesser-known dances like the “Mitzvah Tantz,” the “Yemenite Step,” and the “Mezinka,” Jews worldwide express their pride in Israel and their rich multicultural identity by blending together the many traditional Jewish dances from across the globe.

I love Jewish dancing! My favourite performance was in 2001.. Ah.. Brings me back!
When I was 12 in 1960 I stumbled upon a Jewish Community Center at the park, a mile from my home where we sang and danced Folk dances. I walked there every week that summer to enjoy the singing and dancing.
Thank you. I've been Jewish for a long time I have to say watching your videos teaches me customs and ideas that I was not aware of. Sincere thinks. Thank you for you
And thank you for watching!!

@@gloryakiepper7918 Nope.
Not at all.
You don't have to be Q anon to belive this
Everyone in world even people living in Asia and middle East know who exactly did 9/11 .
It has been 22 years.
Sadly real culprits never got punished.
So many million died in middle East since then.
Sad.
May God punish real culprits.
@@gloryakiepper7918lol do you know who Larry Silverstein is?
Give him a search…
I watch this to accompany my memories of Israel. It's been a very long time since I travelled through Israel with my father. The food! The sights to see! The culture! The people, all of those living there❤. I still get goosebumps thinking about Massada.
One day, I hope very much, I shall return.
Thanks to God for finding this channel of yours. I used to do folkdancing when studying at Brockwood with Mr Jim Fowler every Saturday evenings. And believe it or not there were quite a few Jewish or Israeli folkdances besides others such as Russian Troika, American Lucky 7, etc. God bless.
I learned many Jewish dances growing up. Love the Yemenite dances as well as the modern Israeli ones. Learned much from this video
Прекрасные народные танцы в Израиле всегда не на сцене, а на улицах, на пляжах, просто завораживает смотреть как просто люди разного возраста танцуют часами под красивые мелодии. Этот народ, несущий в мир свет, красоту, доброту непобедим! ❤🇮🇱🙏
You must have lived your life in your outhouse not to have noticed that all these so-called "Jewish dances" and all the dance steps and movements were appropriated (stolen) from the national cultures which they lived around. Most of the dances are East European, some Arabian or from the cultures of the Levant. Maybe no Russian dances were appropriated because the Jewish pale of Czarist times was outside of Russia proper but the influence of Ukrainian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Serbian dances is just too striking. At least this narrator doesn't hide that although he goes overboard in celebrating Jewish creativity and artistry. The same applies to "Jewish foods", "Jewish songs," and many other spheres of culture where little is original Jewish.
Lovely video. I've been Israeli dancing since 1964. Just one thing, tho. In addition to the dances mentioned from other countries, there is a dance called "Scotch" that is a scottish
song called the Keel Row and one from Poland called "Krakoviak" We danced these every week and love them. Also, Margot Oved taught us some wonderful Yemenite dances. Today is our birthday party in Larkspur CA. 60+ years of dancing, eating and schmoozing.
Zemir Atik, The Hora, the Yemenite step and the Yemenite hop are all familiar to me because I dance them all, and still do.
Fun Fact: In Israel there is an Official Registrar of Folk Dances... If you have an idea for a dance to a new song you need to "register" it first at the "Folk Dances Association" before you can start teaching it under your name. That prevents disputes between dance instructors regarding the origins and originality of song.
seems like a fever dream
All family members must do sweeping dance at least once a day. This will result perfect bonding and amazing Housekeeping 👏 ❤️
I always had something was drawn me to Jewish stories even I grew in a country which didn’t have many of them, few years ago I did the ancestor DNA test and I found that I have 5% of Ashkenazi Jews 😊
😂😂😂😂😂
I think alotta of us (espy those of us with German and E. European ancestry ) have at least 5% if not more Jewish ancestry. 23 and me is awesome
Сочувствую
I can give you 5 inches of ashkenazi jew
Congratulations. Now you can go to to Israel and claim a piece of Palestinian land😊
Great video ! Glad to see "hora" which is the national traditional dance in Romania
I am Romanian and Israeli so seeing the hora and hearing the music just warms my heart and makes me whole.
3:15 those are some seriously cool hats, and a huge get together!
Thanks for including me in your video of the Yemenite Step! Great video. Well done
Very interesting. I also LOVE that background klezmer music.
Magnifique culture peuple juif 😘. Je vous aime de tout coeur. Que l'éternel vous protège et que les enfants d'Israël vivent dans la paix ✝️😘✡️
😊❤❤❤
Un peuple magnifique !!!!So wonderfull !!!
Very cool! i did not know that about the Hora!
I'm glad to see that American Jews finally recognized that the Hora is not a Jewish folklore dance at all, but a Balkan and Romanian traditional dance.
Called “Kolo” in the Balkans
@@DK-pl1wz The name, spelled differently in various countries, is derived from the Greek χορός (khorós): "dance", which is cognate with the Ancient Greek art form of χορεία (khoreía). The original meaning of the Greek word χορός may have been "circle". Also, the words hora and oro are found in many Slavic languages and have the meaning of "round (dance)"; the verb oriti means "to speak, sound, sing" and previously meant "to celebrate".
There's never been any question. Some people just don't know about the origins of things.
Hmmmm... 🤣....
I am Romanian and Israeli so seeing the hora and hearing the music just warms my heart and makes me whole.
Which one did they do for 9/11?
This is the comment I was looking for😂😂
Thanks for sharing. I do love to dance too.
Such a fascinating and informative video! Growing up I was always discouraged when it came to music and dance by my family/religious community ( I am not Jewish btw). Watching this video brought me such immense joy tbh... A culture/religion/community where dancing is celebrated and enjoyed!! Loved it!! ❤
9 11
Loved the Mezinka 😂🤣😂🤣 So funny!!
It was something to celebrate because how expensive was to marry a daughter 😅 I love to see it was celebrated with humor😂❤
Yes, I loved this! Like sweeping out the “empty nest”
This is silliness
What an informative video!
Greetings from Wallachia!
Always more for the chats , too😊
Very interesting!
I absolutely love to watch all kinds of cultural dance. The mizinka is the best. Jews really have a wonderful sense of humor. If I wasn’t already a very committed Christian I would convert to Judaism. Close knit families, knowing that having a good time in dance, food and celebrations is a good thing, I think it’s interesting that Israel is a melting pot of Jews from all over the world and America is also a melting pot. Unfortunately many in America became so fully American we forgot much of our history so we don’t have a lot of rich traditions passed down for a very long time. I had to do a DNA test to figure out my ancestry because neither of my parents knew hardly anything about where they came from. I also think the Jewish diaspora kept family close and traditions alive because Jews were so maligned and mistreated that they really had to depend on and trust each other. I hope to visit Israel some day. I pray for the peace of Israel, for protection and blessings on you all. My G-d be with you all. I know this sounds crazy but I thank you for giving me Yahshua. He is my savior and king and I love him with all my heart. I really wish Christianity had not strayed so far from its Jewish roots. I think we miss out on a lot of biblical understanding from a Hebraic mindset. I’m a bit different. I do not celebrate Easter and Christmas because of their pagan roots. I keep sabbath, celebrate all the biblical feasts and follow Torah. Thanks for such a great video.
I thought I was going to see some beautiful dances, but there is nothing like that in this video. Really beautiful dances for me are such as Beryozka in Russia, Chinese Kalaviṅka, Kafa from Caucasus, Georgian dances, tango, ballet...
Thanks for sharing🥰🥰now I can dance like a true Israeli like 2001 back in the day💯🧏♂️🗣️🔥💥🗿💪🥶✅🍆💦
Dance Is The Joy Of Soul 🤍
I love watching ur channel.
We love when you watch our channel too!
Our traditional Ethiopian Jewish shoulder/ neck dance, while shown here in the intro, is not explained here. Hope you can manage next time.
Great idea to include in a future related video! Thanks for the feeedback
Sweeping us out of the house is funny coz most of our mums beg us to stay 💀
From India ❤
Who narrates this? I’ve see him in several great videos
We love our host Yirmiyahu too!
Circle Dance 🤍💙🤍
It looks so funny.
Don't take me wrong brother but Pre-Abrahimic Pagan cultures were filled with Folk dances and cultural celebrations.. but Obsession over One God Monotheism Dogma comsumed Nuances and Colorfulness of Entire region and people slowly became monotonous over generations. 😢
I'm Hindu.. but i want to see Europe and middle East returning to their roots prior to Abrahimisation. ❤
Love from India. ❤🕉️🙏
🇮🇳❤️🇮🇱
We are Jewish, not Hindu.
May God Bless Israel
I wonder if they are still happy and together
I've heard of a Jewish dance where the men sit crosslegged on the ground and suddenly leap very high in the air. I think it's a Russian Jewish dance.
❤❤
🎼🎶💃🕺💕👏👏👏
We wanted more dancing, less talking !
Fijn hoor 😎💔
Fun fact: Tanz is the German word for dance.
Also in Yiddish
@@Meirstein Yiddish is a schene Sprach ❤️
Very interesting! Hope I will never have to dance like that ! I am good for a heart attack ! 😅

Mitzvah Tantz has kabbalistic significance. Some sects don’t do it anymore due to ‘yeridat hadorot’.
Are there any Sephardic dances?
The Orthodox are against pre-marital sex because it might lead to mixed dancing.After all,if a couple sleeps together the next thing that happens is they will dance together and the Orthodix cant have that.
Como "10 mil anos" se de Adão até aqui dá menos de 6 mil anos, de acordo com a Bíblia?
David danced before ARK...
Check them facts, people.
Possibly the most annoying part of Fiddler on the Roof is the dance the men do at the wedding by balancing a bottle on their head. One of the writers of the show said he said it in a painting of Eastern European Jews. Then the choreographer thought it might add to the show. Is this some sort of Chasidic test of skill?
I dance like Arabs 😅 it all depends on where those Jews migrated from 😏
You dance like Arabs , the same as the others dances like the real country they originally are from .
Хасиды прикольные.
These are Eastern European dances which are Turkic dances.
The Hora was copied by the Greeks. It was a dance in judae and sumaria. Greeks didn’t have a lord until 332AD.
What about dancing Israelis with van full of explosives? (They were arrested and charged but freed)
Well , them dances are from Easter European , Baltic , Turkish or Greek origins and some middle eastern ones … nothing Jewish about it but them being danced by people following the Jewish faith . Yeah , I said it it’s a belief , a religion coming with the followers own culture . Nothing else. And of course no a single mention of the Beta Israel Hebrews … 😅😅😅😅
🫶🎵🙌
I hope lezginka is here of mountain Jews and kavkaz
Google dancing israelis.
How could you miss the Kazatzka? The squatting, leg throwing, jumping Russian Jewish dance, they balance bottles on their heads. It was in Fiddler on the Roof. Any Ashkenazi Jew has someone who knows this dance.
Why did they create such huge & heavy hats for themselves, especially that the country has hot climate?
Didn't they also dance like this on top of a van during 911?
EUROPE

9/11
Calls down the souls of ancestors to bless the newly wed,,...What...they barely had any memory here on earth, what can they expect calling souls. They moved on, passed away. What ever happened to Just God the "Almighty Blessings" is more than they can handle. People, is been more than 2000 yrs now, Stop your pagan ways. No one has the means to pay for that.
No war dance??☹️
By European occupiers

This is Palestinian dance. They are stealing Palestinian heritage
Yes Palestine dance is amazing
