История
Танец был создан в 1937 году для фестиваля, посвященного открытию воды в пустыне после семилетнего поиска. Хореографом была Эльза И. Дублон. Танец иногда известен как "Ushavtem Mayim" – по первым словам текста, или просто "Mayim", но "Mayim Mayim" – оригинальное и наиболее распространенное название. Движение к первым четырем счетам стало известно как "шаг Майим" и напоминает шаг "виноградная лоза", встречающийся в других видах танца. "Mayim Mayim" исполняется в форме круга, участники обращены в центр на протяжении большей части танца и держатся за руки, за исключением моментов хлопания.
The 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. Dublon. 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. CountStepPart 11–4Grapevine: Step R foot across in front of L foot, step on L foot to L, step on R foot behind L foot, step on L foot to L (turning a bit as you go, so that the R foot goes more forward and backward, rather than directly crossing)5–16Repeat counts 1–4 three more timesPart 21–4Run four steps forward, R L R L.
