4. Ken Rikud every last Thursday of the month!
PARENTS AND CHANICHIM!!!!
Do you like Israeli dancing? Do you like Israelis who dance? Or do you just like people shaking their booties? Then this is for you!
We would like to invite all of Eizor Galil to participate in a new concept to us: Ken Rikud. For all those rakdans who love Israeli dancing there is a great weekly session in our area that we can all come together to enjoy what we do best. Don Schillinger, aka Dan Rakdan, runs an amazing program every Thursday at Adath Israel, bringing dancers of all ages together for one night of amazing fun and excitement.
With that in mind, we are officially designating every last Thursday of the month as Ken Rikud. We are going to head over to the Main Line to join Don and bringing the energy that only Eizor Galil has. In fact, with a good Galil crowd, he will make sure play some of our favorites - as well as teach new ones. While we're be there, dances will be primarily lines and circles.
Here are the details:
WHO: Parents and chanichim
WHEN: Every last Thursday of the month from 7-9PM
WHERE: Adath Israel
250 N. Highland Ave
Merion, PA 19066
Our first Ken Rikud will be held on Thursday, March 29. GET PUMPED!
