Mayim Mayim ({{lang-he|מים מים}}, "water, water") is a popular Israeli folk dance, danced to a song of the same name. It has become notable outside the Israeli dancing community and is often performed at international folk dance events. The danceThe dance was created in 1937 for a festival to celebrate the discovery of water in the desert after a seven-year search. The choreographer was Else I. Dublin.[1] The dance is sometimes known as "Ushavtem Mayim", after the first words of the lyrics, or simply just "Mayim", but "Mayim Mayim" is the original and most common name. The movement to the first four counts has become known as the "Mayim step" and is similar to the grapevine step found in other forms of dance. "Mayim Mayim" is done in a circle formation, facing the center through most of the dance, and holding hands except when clapping.[2]
The songThe music for Mayim Mayim was composed by Emanuel Pugashov Amiran with lyrics taken from the Book of Isaiah, chapter 12 verse 3,[3][4] "With joy you shall draw water from the springs of salvation".
