Greek Traditional Dance Workshops

Parents, Instructors & Adult Dancers,

We are excited to announce Greek Traditional Dance Workshops to be offered on Saturday, June  18 and 25  from 10:00am-12:30pm.  The workshops are open to all St. Demetrios youth ages 12 & up, to existing dance teachers, and also to adults interested in teaching dance next year.

The purpose of the workshop is to:

  • Review the basics.
  • Deepen our understanding of Greek traditional dance.
  • Develop our rhythm and style according to the different geographical regions.
  • Develop the dance skills of new participants.
  • Sharpen the skills of more experienced dancers.
  • Sharpen the skills of our dance teachers for the demands of the upcoming year.

These workshops will give all of us the opportunity to immerse ourselves into the richness of the Greek tradition and strengthen our program’s spirit.

Our St Demetrios Director of Greek Dance, Lilian Vlandis will teach the exhibition group and will lead the workshops.  Lilian has been a member of the famous Dora Stratou Theater of Traditional Dances for 10 years and she has been teaching and directing Greek dance for 35years.   Log on at: http://www.grdance.org/en/ Join the action!
