Several partner dances are recorded with name Na'ama: by Moti Alfassy 1981, by Bentzi Tiram 1983, by Marco Ben-Shimon 1984 or 1985 (sources differ), by Peri Shachaf 1992. At least Marco's and Bentzi's, and probably Moti's, are all set to the same song, with music by Shlomo Biderman, lyrics by Avraham Bar Oz (who also wrote the lyrics of Debkat HaShalom and Al Gemali), and a..."

Chagigat Aviv seems to be the second dance containing sivuv lachatz (pivot step), the first being Atsei HaTsaftsafot (see 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 i..."

The song was composed by Shlomo Weissfisch (or Visefish or Weisfish), composer of Hora Eilat and of Simona MiDimona. The lyricist is Benjamin Avigal, husband of Miriam Avigal, who first recorded it. Although the dance is generally considered first-rate, its only interesting feature is that (according to the Rokdim video linked below) it is the fi..."

Rak Ata is often mistakenly attribute to Moshe Eskayo. However, it was created by Eileen Weinstock and first presented in her Tuesday women-only group. (One small section of the dance didn't work well, and Moshe helped improve that piece, but this was his only contribution.) When it came time to teach the dance to a larger audience Moshe presented it as his own, at Eileen's..."

Moshe wanted to create a dance for Eitan Weinstock, to be called Debka Eitan. Eitan was a child at the time, and with a child's petulance said that he didn't want a dance named after him. When asked, he offered the name Harvey instead (a name he liked) and so Moshe set out to create Debka Harvey. Meantime, a friend of Moshe and of Avner Naim persistently asked them for a dance to be..."

The dance is remarkable only for its adherence to a couple of changes in tempo, including one complete pause, in the music. The song, sung by Omer Adam, has generated considerable controversy. It was released for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novy_God Novy God], the Russian new year celebration, and was immediately attacked as "crudel..." current
