STANDING ROOM ONLY FOR DANCING IN JAFFA

It was standing room only at Timely Topics and Tasty Treats on January 28th for the screening of Dancing in Jaffa.  There were 64 attendees who watched the film and participated in the talk back led by Moshe Golomb. He shared that his sister Miri Shahaf, Founder and Executive Director of Dancing Classrooms Israel, has seen the program of bringing ballroom dancing to Palestinian and Israeli children grow throughout the country in the last ten years. If you are interested in seeing  Dancing in Jaffa,  you can find it on Amazon Prime, Hulu and DirecTV. If you are in Israel during the school year, Miri would be happy to meet with you at Dancing Classroom Israel, 10 Ehud Manor, Suite #70, Netanya. Telephone +972-(0)-52-8556631. An enjoyable time was had by all as evidenced by applause at the end.
