the old "DABKE" is a new experience in the West

The DABKE dance is typical of all of Palestine this dance is seen as a way to express feelings and moods of people this dance is a flirtation between women and men in the West is so to speak again while the world Arabic is a tradition for many, many years ago.

In Latin countries as the Chile, DABKE is taught to all persons belonging to the Palestinian community in general and Arabic. They were also taught to all Chileans, or people interested in learning, while in Colombia the typical teaching of this dance is almost zero because I know only one site around the country that teaches DABKE and these classes are given very rarely. There is the CLUB CAMPESTRE of the city of Barranquilla.

The teaching of this dance, food and overall culture of Palestine, gives us to know or to show the people that those people who belong to these communities are not all terrorists or people who think of hurting our neighbor but on the contrary we are a community that has enriched the Colombian culture, as the Colombians have also enriched its culture and people interested in learning about Arab culture and especially the DABKE grows every day more. For that reason I can say that the old DABKE is a new experience in the West.
