The Greek dance is a journey without end, begun since the dawn of Greek civilization. Passed down from generation to generation, dance is one of the oldest traditions that continuously promotes national identity and integrity. Each region of Greece has played an important role in shaping the style of local traditional dances.

These unique experiences offer a deep insight into the culture through guided walks and live dance performances. Explore the different plants, trees and flowers and observe the unique fauna of the Koutavos lagoon.

Maria

My name is Maria and I am a professional dance teacher with a lot of experience in all Greek dances. Looking back on time I was at the age of five (5) when I first started to dance at the festivals following the dance moves of the other dancers to the best of my dancing abilities as being only five years old. The kinds of dance I have been taught and their characteristics were purely authentic because I have been taught to dance by other dancers who had themselves been taught by other dancers etc. all coming from different areas of Kefalonia due to the fact that “dancers” tend to go to different dancing events and take part no matter where and when these events take place!
