Location

Dance Troupe

About

The idea of starting a folk dance troupe, Majdal, began in mid-2019 after a group of young men and women from Jordan taking a 2-year-Dabkeh-dance-training-workshop by the “El-Funoun Palestinian Popular Dance Troupe”. Currently, Majdal includes a total of 25 members. Members take turn to play the administrative role in the troupe. As a young troupe, Majdal is focusing on producing its own performance, conducting training to Dabkeh trainers and general public.
