Havdalah Dance Jam with Amy Segal
This is an evening that celebrates the kinetic spirit of Chochmat Halev with joyful movement and dancing.
Come reveal the ways in which we can use dance and movement as a lens to look at Torah and vice versa. It will unfold in 3 parts; first, a facilitated conversation based on a selected Jewish text. Then, Havdalah led by a member of the Chochmat community, followed by an hour of fun, easy-to-follow dancing led by Amie Segal and time for free dance.
