Rikud Brooklyn: Israeli Dance Mini-Mester

Are you ready to dance?!

You don't have to know a dance to do a dance! Whether you’re graceful, awkward, or somewhere in between, Israeli dance is slow and fast and energetic and graceful and fun...and more meaningful than you might know. Join us for this three-week session to be a part of the circle, move, and be moved. No experience necessary: really!

Where: The Senesh School, 342 Smith St

When: Wednesdays in December (Dec 4th, 11th, 18th) from 6:00-7:00PM

For: Adults and teens ages 16 and up.

Cost: $75 for the mini-mester (includes all three sessions)

In order to cultivate a feeling of community as we form this creative movement group, we are asking participants to commit to all three sessions.

MEET OUR INSTRUCTOR:

Erica Goldman has been an engineering linguist, a high school English teacher, a nonprofit Chief Program Officer, and alongside it all: an Israeli dance teacher. A two-time Brandeis University graduate, she holds an MBA and a Masters in Jewish Professional Leadership and is a grateful Wexner Fellow. Erica is an Educator for the Cornerstone Fellowship, a program of the Foundation for Jewish Camp, and in May 2015, she launched Ma'agal, an initiative to improve Israeli dance education at schools and camps across the nation. Erica is the Deputy CEO of The Bronfman Fellowship, so if you are (or know) a high school student who's all in on deep, long conversations on interesting topics, talk to her immediately. Erica lives in Brooklyn, NY and in 2023, she taught Israeli dancing on her fifth continent (so far!)

With special thanks to the Jewish Agency for Israel for their additional support to help us launch this program for the Brooklyn community!
