Hebrew: חגיגת אביב (Celebration of the Spring). Circle dance by [[Shaul Rozenberg]], 1978.

Chagigat Aviv seems to be the second dance containing sivuv lachatz (pivot step), the first being Atsei HaTsaftsafot (see [[First Steps | here]]).

As explained in the Rokdim video linked below, this dance is almost nowhere done as choreographed. In the first phrase, the woman turns only once. More importantly, the second phrase is not a repeat of the first, but rather is completely different. See the video for details.

If Chagigat Aviv is the second dance with pivot turns, it's certainly the first to contain the ubiquitous sequence where the pivot turn is preceded by a face-to-face mayim step, men starting L to L side then R crossing behind L (and the reverse for women).

With the recording typically used, the pivot steps at the very end of the dance can be continued through the long coda. Instead of four counts of pivoting, exactly eighteen counts of pivoting followed by a quick twirl of the woman on count nineteen finishes exactly with end of the music.
