Sham Harei Golan  (There are the Mountains of Golan)

              Dance Choreographed by Jonathan Gabay, 1971

               Notes by Phillip M. Feldman   5 Aug, 1987

This beginner-level circle dance has two parts.  Throughout the dance,
hands are joined at waist level to close the circle.  Note: The "camel
step" is an in-place movement, i.e., the feet do not move, and it should
be done slowly and gracefully. With the right foot forward, bend both
knees (not as far as a crouch) and move the hips circularly: forward, up
(unbending the knees and lifting slightly on the toes), backwards, and
then down (returning to original position).

       Part 1: Travelling CCW around the circle.

  1-4: Four steps forward with R-L-R-L.
  5-6: Step forward with R and camel (see above).
  7-8: Camel (no movement of feet).
 9-10: Brush L forward and bring it back.
11-12: Repeat 9-10.
13-16: Backward Yemenite L: step backward onto L, step in place on R,
       step forward with L, and pause for 1 count.
17-32: Repeat 1-16.

       Part 2: Turning to face into the circle.

  1-2: (Slow) step forward with R.
  3-4: Brush L forward.
  5-6: Step forward with L.
  7-8: Brush R forward.
 9-10: Step forward with R.
11-12: Brush L forward and step on it, bending the knee slightly.
13-16: Four (quick) steps backwards with R-L-R-L.
17-32: Repeat 1-16.

     The whole dance repeats three times.
