        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)
