The Jewish holiday of Shavuot, the beginning of summer harvest festival, starts Saturday night. Shavuot is Hebrew for "weeks". Shavuot takes place 7 weeks after Passover, on the fiftieth day, which corresponds to Pentecost. Shavuot celebrates the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai. These are some dances that we do that have a connection to Shavuot:
- Al Sadeinu : On Our Fields
- Ashrei Haish : The Happy Man (Moses and the Burning Bush)
- Yedid Nefesh : Soul Mate, referring to the Torah or Shabbat and the Jewish people
 
 
Hag Sameach,
Andy
