Symmetria Kinisis:
The Dance of Vital Motion

Movement as a Reflection of Balance and Vitality

The body is the instrument of the soul - Plato

In Symmetria Kinisis, we honor the profound connection between body and movement, inspired by the ancient Greek understanding of beauty through balance and symmetry. This circle focuses on the transformative power of movement, particularly through Greek-style dance, to foster both physical vitality and emotional expression.

Greek dance has long been regarded as a sacred form of movement, embodying the rhythms of the natural world and the cycles of life. From the graceful, flowing motions of the Syrtos and Zorba dance to the energetic steps of the Hasapiko, and the joyful, spirited rhythm of the Ikariotiko, these dances are not only a celebration of heritage but also a pathway to wellness. The Ikariotiko dance, native to the island of Ikaria, a celebrated Blue Zone, is particularly known for its connection to longevity and communal well-being. On this island, where the people live some of the longest and healthiest lives in the world, the dance fosters a sense of community, joy, and vitality, reflecting the very essence of Ikarian life.

Through Greek dance therapy, you will engage in therapeutic movement that unlocks emotional release, strengthens the body, and aligns the spirit. The rhythm and flow of these dances serve as a dynamic reminder that wellness arises from the seamless integration of mind, body, and soul.
