Eretz Hatzabar   (Land of the Sabra)   Dance by Shmuel Gov-ari

       Notes by Phillip M. Feldman   9/29/1986   Rev. 10/30/1986

     This easy circle dance has two parts.  Hands are joined at waist
level except when turning.  First part: Begin facing CCW around circle.

   1-3: Three steps forward, R-L-R, pivoting 90 degrees to the right
        (CW) on 3 to face out.
   4-5: Slide L, close R, slide L, close R.
     6: Slide L and pivot 180 degrees to the left (CCW) to face center.
   7-8: Step on R (in place) and lean R.  Step on L and lean L.
  9-11: First three steps of grapevine-right, R-L-R.
 12-13: Finish grapevine by crossing behind with L on 12 and immediately
        take two quick steps on 12-1/2 and 13 with R-L.  These steps may
        be either small steps forward (into circle) or in-place steps.
    14: Step forward on R, leaning back slightly as you do so.
    15: Rock back onto L.  This is just a transfer of weight-- not a
        step.  Allow gravity to pull you back.
    16: Stamp R (closing to L) without weight.
 17-32: Repeat 1-16.

     Second part:

     1: Fall right (essentially a tiny in-place leap onto R).
     2: Cross L in front of R, bending both knees slightly.
   3-4: Take a small step backwards on R and close with L.
   5-6: Walk two steps forward, R-L.
  7-10: Repeat 1-4.
 11-12: Step forward with R and kick forward with L.
 13-15: Turn 180 degrees to the left (CCW), L-R-L.
    16: Touch R.
 17-32: Repeat 1-16.

     Ending: The whole dance repeats three times (1-2-1-2-1-2).  The
music ends by repeating the first 16 counts of the part 1:

  1-11: Same as 1-11 of first part.
 12-13: Finish grapevine as before and take two quick medium-size
        steps forward (into circle), R-L.
 14-15: Two large steps forward, R-L.
    16: Heavy stamp R.
