There is an early source allowing for dancing on Simchas Torah - davka<br>
because it is ONLY YT Sheini [IIRC this is Rav Hai Gaon]</blockquote><div><br>So is there any source allowing for dancing on ST in EY when it's YT Rishon, and in many years including this year Shabbat to boot? I have never been a big fan of the literally endless dancing that goes on in most batei kenesset, and I would be overjoyed to find a solid halachic basis from which to object rather than the "Bah, Humbug!" for which my only source is Even Ha`Ezer Scrooge ;-)<br>
