Description

Dancing Against the Flow is Moshiko Itzhak-Halevy's personal and professional story, written by his own hand. Born in 1932, he is one of Israel's most talented and versatile folk dance choreographers, whose early circumstances and many pitfalls challenged him to give up his dreams. Despite these setbacks, Moshiko's talent and optimism ultimately led to the fulfillment of his dreams and his success both in Israel and around the world. In this unique autobiography, he describes his path, personal history, encounters, and the people who influenced him, providing an insider's perspective on the world of Israeli folk dance. Through his remarkable life and career, Moshiko has created over 260 Israeli folk dances since 1959, and has been a professional dancer with several companies. He shares his own experiences as a teacher, performer, and composer, offering a glimpse into the world of Israeli folk dance that is both personal and informative.
