Erev Ba -Russ showed us how it was originaly taught by Rivka Sturman.
She was born in Europe, arrived in Palestine in 1929, and lived at Kfar
Yehezkel. She moved to Ein Charod where she began to teach dance. Later,
she joined the newly formed organization sponsored by the Histadrut, which
concerned itself with creating folk dances. Rivka's background in modern
dance helped her in her approach to folk dance choreography and, very
soon, she was considered one of the most prolific and successful folk
dance choreographers of Israeli dances. (From Dick Oakes web site)
