Davidic Dance Worship Workshop

Come experience worship with your feet on Wednesdays from 7:30pm-8:45pm! Davidic Dance classes start 1/11 in Room 337 and run through 4/11 - all are welcome! It's not about getting it perfect, but worshiping our Creator. Free registration online.

Dance has been a Biblical form of worship throughout the ages.  It is an expression of joy, triumph, praise, and celebration. We have the leadership examples of Miriam and King David in Exodus and First Samuel using dance to unite the community in worship. The title Davidic Dance comes from the worship dance of the Messianic movement of this century. It incorporates folk style movements patterned after traditional Israeli folk dances, but it differs in that Davidic Dance is always in a worshipful context using Messianic music.  Dances may vary from very simple, repetitive steps to more complex and are choreographed for a group to dance without any emphasis on one dancer.  The tone of  Messianic Jewish dances range from reverentially devotional to exuberantly joyful. Dancers include men, women, teenagers and young children. It's not about getting it perfect, but worshiping our Creator. We were created to glorify HIM.  Come join us and experience WORSHIP with your feet!
