Sara Levi-Tanai (1910-2005)
Choreographer, songwriter and poet Sara Levi-Tanai was born in Jerusalem to parents who were originally from Yemen. After her mother passed away when she was seven years old, she grew up in an orphanage in Safed and in the Meir Shfeya youth village. Levi-Tanai's many talents, including writing and dramatizing were apparent from the time she was a child and she was awarded a JDC scholarship to Levinsky Seminar in Tel Aviv. There she was trained as a preschool teacher and subsequently worked in preschools in little Tel Aviv. Due to a shortage of proper educational material, she began writing poems and recitations for children. She also published stories in a number of newspapers, Davar, Davar Yeladim and Davar Hapo'elet.
In 1940 she moved to Kibbutz Ramat Hakovesh, where she taught preschool during the day and was a cultural creator at night. She wrote revues for the holidays, set biblical passages to music, wrote holiday songs and created folk dances, the most well-known of which is El Ginat Ha'egoz (To the Nut Grove). She also published two children's books at that time. Her desire to be more active in the arts brought Levi-Tanai back to Tel Aviv, where she founded the Inbal Dance Theater in 1949. She brought young girls and boys from "Kerem Hatemanim", and through them connected to her Yemenite roots, which inspired her unique artistic works.
Sara Levi-Tanai developed a new language of movement. Her choreography was inspired by the bible, Israeli landscapes and Yemenite and Sephardic folklore. Through its many overseas tours, Inbal served as an ambassador of Israeli culture.
Sara Levi-Tanai was awarded the Israel Prize in dance in 1973 for her contributions in the field of performing arts, as well as various other awards, including the title of "honored citizen of Tel Aviv".
