Born in Levantine villages, Dabke is a social dance of unity and strength—neighbors linking hands to step, kick, stomp, and turn as one line. It’s seen at weddings, holidays, and community gatherings, as well as in situations of protest, desperation, and resistance. It fuels the good times and lends a sense of hope in the bad. Today it resonates from village squares to concert stages and social media feeds all over the world, a living tradition of resilience, identity, passion, and the power of community.
