What if learning about a culture began with music, movement, and people coming together? 💙 🇬🇷

In this new blog, City Lit tutor Vina Theodorakopoulou shares how Greek dance can bring us closer to language, tradition and each other. From the joy of syrtaki to the quiet emotion of zeibekikos.

Have a read. It might just make you want to get up and dance. 🕺
