Machol Miami Israeli Dance Camp

From: Peggy Elimelech

Hello,

We are back! With lots of fun planned for Dec 25-27 Machol Miami is pleased to invite you to come dance with Gadi Bitton and all your South Florida dance friends. We dance at the MAR JCC in our gym with wood floors and Air conditioning. We need Air Conditioning in South Florida even in December. Stay with friends or we have made an arrangement with the AC Marriott in Aventura for a special rate. All the details including the schedule are on our website www.macholmiami,com. Check it out!

But what about COVID? If you are vaccinated, masks are optional. If you are not vaccinated masks are required. I am pretty sure most, if not all, of our South Florida dancers are vaccinated. Those from out of town? So far every one I have spoken also reports being vaccinated.

How about the dancing? My session on Sunday nights in the MAR JCC reopened in November 2020. We have been slowly adding new dances and remembering dances we have all loved for years. I play a mix of circles and partner dances. I suspect we will have a few line dances too since I have been told that a well known line dance choreographer will be joining us. So come and let's have a great time.

Looking forward to seeing you in our dance circle in Machol Miami,
Warm regards,
Peggy

Body Groove with Beth Michelson

Hi Everyone,

Hope all is well. I'm back to teaching and I hope you can join in. Here's a little reminder about the class:

Body Groove is a dynamically interactive and creative group dance experience. With great music, I will, as your facilitator, unite everyone in a simple movement or rhythm but you dance it in your own unique way. While exploring a variety of styles and genres you will experience everything from slow, meditative grooves to heart thumping and strength building cardio beats. The perfect recipe to nurture body, mind, heart and soul.

We will be meeting at the south east side of West Side Park on 8 Avenue and 34th Street. You can park at the pool or by the playground or by the trail entrance. Probably better to park in the parking lots. There are public restrooms close by. When you arrive please sign and date the waiver form.

Come out for four Saturdays in October at 10 am. Donation $5 to $10.

Please email me at bnmichelson@gmail.com or call 352-219-4653 for info and link to the class.

See you soon,

Beth Michelson
