He also gave a styling class where we practiced steps that later became Ramot. The dance was named for the town in Israel (a suburb of Jerusalem) in which his daughter Irit lived. <br /> <br /> Ramot was introduced at [http://israelidances.com/search.asp?S=A&amp;intPageNo=1&amp;VideoSourceAbb=HS86 Hora Shalom 1986].<br /> <br /> ==== Anecdotes ====<br /> <br /> On multiple occasions, [[Moshe Eskayo]] has stopped a session when he notices people dancing Ramot incorrectly. After correcting the mistakes, the session continues.<br /> <br /> ==== Variations ====<br /> <br /> Often a wild clapping is seen in part 1 (on counts 20-24),specially in Israel. The original never saw any claps in this part.<br /> <br /> However, Moshe does a clap on the sixth count of the second part. This clap is often lost, especially in Isreal.<br /> <br /> In the third part, many people turn too late to face out of the center. The (half pivot) turn is correctly on the third beat, that is, touch right (count 9), forward with weight on right (count 10), then turn 180 so the next step is left in place (count 11), facing out, right in place (count 12).<br /> <br /> ==== Open Questions ====<br /> <br /> How did this dance become &quot;Debka Ramot&quot;?<br /> It was introduced as &quot;Ramot&quot;!<br /> <br /> ==== Links ====<br /> <br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnodvp29Jh4 (note the speed of the original)<br /> <br /> ==== References ====<br /> <br /> {{AussieDance|96}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Dances]]</div>
