Danielle Sasi Peretz | Nova Festival Survivor | Israel-Hamas War | Conversation with Shana Meyerson
Manage episode 451538803 series 3612744
Danielle Sasi Peretz, a Los Angeles native, was in Israel to celebrate the Jewish holidays in 2023. She and six of her family members went to the Nova Music Festival on Simchat Torah, the most joyous day of the Jewish calendar.
Nova was a music and dance festival that attracted thousands of people from all over the world and all walks of life to celebrate music, peace, the environment and life.
At the break of dawn, 6:29am, Hamas terrorists overran the party via truck, motorcycle, and the now infamous hanggliders, to massacre as many people as possible. The atrocities that occurred that day defy humanity and many are too barbaric to even think about.
By the end of the Hamas terrorist rampage, 365 Nova attendees were left murdered. Four of Danielle's family members among them.
It is only by a miracle of God that Danielle is with us today to tell her story.
In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Danielle Sasi Peretz discuss the Nova Festival, the massacre, and the aftermath for the survivors of the most diabolical terrorist attack in modern history.
If you are a yogi or yogini who either denies the atrocities of October 7, mitigates or justifies them, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about terror, survival, and what innocent victims really look like.

Danielle Sasi Peretz was born and raised in Los Angeles to Israeli parents. Growing up, she attended Jewish private schools and visited Israel at least once a year to see family. Danielle married her husband in 2022 and had their first born son in May 2023. In September of 2023 they went to Israel to celebrate the Jewish holidays. They wanted to dance the night away at the Nova Festival. That was a day before they were supposed to fly home. Out of seven family members who attended the Nova Music Festival, only three made it home.
