Palestinian Dabke

with Handala Dance Troupe

Learn Palestinian dabke, a folk dance of rhythm, footwork and collective joy, with the Handala Dance Troupe in Lisbon.

Classes and workshops run in person in Lisbon. Follow Handala on Instagram for the current schedule, open sessions and event announcements.

Dabke is more than a dance: it is a collective act of memory, belonging, and resistance. Each synchronized step affirms connection to land and community, carrying stories across generations even in the face of displacement and erasure. Danced shoulder to shoulder, Dabke turns rhythm into solidarity and keeps Palestinian culture visible, living, and shared.
