I know, you’ve already mastered all the smooth moves you need for a Jewish event: you can dance in a circle both clockwise and counterclockwise! But maybe you want to switch it up, or maybe the dance circle is moving too painfully slow and you’re tired of stepping on other people’s toes.
Or maybe you have a different problem. Maybe you’re the person who runs away or who tries to fade into the wallpaper when dancing is involved. Perhaps this video is even more important for you… for when people peer pressure you into dancing or just outright drag you into the dancing area.
Her best advice? “Have a dancing face. Put some attitude into it!”
My only criticism? There were so many great cheesy dance moves left out! You can’t leave out the Roxbury or the Sprinkler or the Cabbage Patch. But I admit that the video would never end if we included them all.
So rather than do that last-minute cleaning or cooking, I want you to turn up the music and get funky instead. You need the practice so that you can bring it on Friday.
What’s your favorite cheesy dance move? Mine is the buttfloss dance. And yes, that is actually a video of me. Shameful, I know.
UPDATE!
Unbeknownst to me, my friend Reina posted 5 MORE Simchas Torah dance moves for you! She’s a dancer and dance teacher, so you should probably take her advice!

Thank you for letting me know! I fixed it. Why couldn't it be the video of me that was broken? Le sigh…
