It’s an atmosphere, a ‘religion’, a whole philosophy… this is the case for zeibekiko, one of the most characteristic manifestations of Greek popular tradition, which has contributed to a very large extent to the formation of our music and dance culture and still plays a leading role in the development of our Greek collective identity … A dance deeply rooted in the memory and soul of the Greeks, which has indelibly marked generations and generations, our everyday moments, our lives. Where does it come from? What are its elements make? And finally, how is it danced and what is its place in modern times?
