​About Gabi Gabay
​
Our friend Gabi Gabay, lost his valiant battle with leukemia, and we lost a dear friend. Gabi had a dream to host a unique dance camp - Gvanim. Our mission is to fulfill his vision as a tribute to him and all that he had meant to us over the years. At Gvanim we will have an opportunity to memorialize Gabi, but mostly we will dance. Let us walk in Gabi's footsteps and follow his way, which is the way of dancing, laughter & joy.
​
May his memory be a blessing and may his beautiful spirit dance in our hearts forever!
Gabi Gabay, along with Ruth Goodman, was leading the dance session at the 92nd Street Y in New York. Gabi directed Machol Atlantic in 2010, and had put in motion the plans for Gvanim before he was diagnosed with leukemia.
