Who are we?
Avirah, the University of Maryland's Israeli Dance Company, was originally formed in the 1990s and revived in 2013. We are now a strong performing group with diverse dance backgrounds. We perform on campus, in the Greater Washington D.C. area, and at Israeli Dance Festivals across the East Coast.

Throughout the semester, we hold Open Dancing sessions for the entire community. No dance experience is required! We also partner with other campus groups to incorporate Israeli dancing into diverse events. Keep an eye on our social media for upcoming events.
