Davidic Dance

Davidic Dance is a physical expression of praise, thanksgiving and joy to Elohim (God). The Hebrew word for dance is rachad (pronounced r'kad) which means to skip or leap for joy. Some of the dances are patterned after traditional Israeli folkdances; others are originally choreographed by Messianic believers. They are meant to be a danced as a group without any emphasis on one dancer. The tone of the dances range from reverentially devotional to exuberantly joyful. Dancers include men, women and teenagers.

All celebrations (weddings, seders, social gatherings etc.) as well as worship services are appropriate time to dance. Davidic dance can play an important role in uniting Jewish and gentile believers in praising the Lord.

"Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance,

the young men and the old, together,

For I will turn their mourning to joy,

I will comfort them,

And make them rejoice rather than sorrow"

Jeremiah 31:13
