Dec 24-27 Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, Israeli Dance Camp Machol Miami

I hope you are planning to join us in the celebration of dance, friendship and the good life that is Machol Miami.  The event is going to start in less than two months, and the cut off date for "Early Bird" registration discount is November 15th.   I hope that you will be able to register by then, and enjoy the discounted rate.

 

Machol Miami will take place at the Sheraton in Fort Lauderdale December 24-27.  There will be "before" and "after" parties in the JCC on the nights of December 23 and December 27.  I hope that you will be able to make it to the whole five nights.

 

Ron and I have just returned from a trip to Israel about two weeks ago. We met with our two choreographers, Dudu Barzilay and Yaron Malichi.  I was looking for two choreographers that not only will be able to present good dances, of themselves and others, but also that will work well together.  I was very happy to see the warmth and cooperation between them.  Dudu and Yaron were both excited about Machol Miami, each giving us a long list of dances that they would like to teach (some of which are still under construction). All in all I think that we will have an outstanding team this year.

 

The theme nights this year will be Shabbat on Friday night,  Brazilian night on Saturday night and Winter Wonderland on Sunday night.  Since Miami does not really have a winter, it is going to be a fantasy night where people can give free rein to their imagination.  The Brazilian night is going to be outstanding, with a group of Israeli dancers who will join us directly from Brazil…

 

We finalized the menu with the caterer. It took some work to adjust the menu to the theme nights, and come up with culinary innovations that will surpass the offerings last year.  We put up a high bar, and the results seem to be very promising.  We also finalized the contract to bring in our fabulous dance floor, the one that we have used for the last couple of years to rave reviews. 

 

So all the preparations are moving along well.  The only missing part is you.  I hope to see you in the picture, and have you in our circle again.
