In [[Hasidic Judaism]], dance is a tool for expressing joy and is believed to purify the soul, promote spiritual elation and unify the community. It also thought to stimulate joy and therefore to have a therapeutic effect.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.yivoencyclopedia.org/article.aspx/Hasidism/Dance |title=Hasidism: Dance |publisher=Yivoencyclopedia.org |date=2008-03-09 |access-date=2013-02-15}}</ref>

===Horah===

===Hora===

The [[Hora (dance)|Horah]] is a Jewish [[circle dance]] typically danced to the music of ''[[Hava Nagila]]''. It is traditionally danced at [[Jewish wedding]]s and other joyous occasions in the Jewish community.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.worldweddingtraditions.com/ethnic_wedding_traditions/jewish_traditions.html |title=Wedding traditions |publisher=Worldweddingtraditions.com |access-date=2013-02-15}}</ref> The popularity of Horah in Israel is attributed by some to the Romanian Jewish dancer [[Baruch Agadati]]. In 1924, he choreographed a show performed by the workers' theater "Ohel", which toured the pioneer settlements of the [[Jezreel Valley]]. "Hora Agadati," as the dance was known, became a success there. The dance was influenced by the Romanian one and some features of Russian dances. Over the time the dance evolved, and in mid-1940s its creator said that now it had become a real folk dance.<ref>[http://www.israelidances.com/Hora%20Agadati%202%20StorySteps%20sml.pdf "The dance Horra Agadati"], Palestine Folk Dance Series No. 1.
