A Truly Enriching Cultural Experience - Taking a dance class at Dora Stratou was an unforgettable highlight of my time in Athens. The instructor was not only incredibly patient but also deeply knowledgeable about the various regional styles and the cultural significance behind each dance. Whether you’re a beginner or have some dance experience, the class is welcoming and easy to follow. It was a joyful, immersive way to connect with Greek traditions, and so much fun! Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic and engaging cultural activity.

A beautiful experience - It was professional. Marina went to great lengths with the three of us. We had a lot of fun. We would definitely come back. The dance class took place in great spaces in the middle of the Plaka.

Not worth the money - Not worth it. You hardly learn anything. Too many steps introduced in short time . We just wanted to learn Zorba, but instructor kept going in many other dances and we hardly learned anything
