The Bible and Talmud refer to many events related to dance, and contain over 30 different dance terms.
Israeli folk dances were created as way of creating a new culture in an old-new land, combining elements from other dance cultures with the music and themes of modern Israel. Most of the dances could be danced by young and old, and celebrated the pioneering spirit. Others were created for professional or semi-professional performing dance groups. Israeli folk dancing is a popular recreational activity in Israel and has also spread over time to other countries around the world.
