Hebraic (Davidic) Dance

We dance to worship and praise El Shaddai and to submit to the Kingship of Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah).

Hebraic Dance is not meant to be entertainment for those participating or watching. We try to use the time, whether dancing or not, to enter into a state of mind appropriate for worship.
