The name "Hora Medura" means Campfire Hora. It was choreographed by Ashriel Yoahv. The dance is called the Campfire Hora because it was written as a Lag B'Omer dance for around that holiday's campfires.
For the entire dance, hands are held out at about head height, palm-to-palm with neighbors.
Each numbered step takes four beats of music.
Part A
- (facing inward) Sidestep R-together-R-together (i.e., R-L-R-L)
- (facing inward) Again sidestep R-together-R-together (i.e., R-L-R-L)
- (facing inward) Step into the circle R-L-R-L
- (facing inward) Step back out of the circle R-L-R-L
[repeat]Part B
- (facing inward) Mayim L (starting with R foot crossing in front of left foot)
- (facing LLOD) Step R-L-R and then hop onto L foot
- (facing inward) Mayim L (starting with R foot crossing in front of left foot)
- (facing inward) Standing in place stomp R heel, pause, stomp R heel, pause
[repeat]
A very common variation changes step 6 into four steps R-L-R-L done facing LLOD while crouching down ("going under the bridge").
