1. ~10 mins

   Welcome and a tasting of local products

   A free tasting of local products is available throughout the experience, and water is always on the table. You can try bread, olive oil, olives, salt, feta and kumquat liqueur. Every tasting is optional.

   
2. ~10 mins

   An icebreaker and a little history

   We begin with a short icebreaker so the group can get acquainted, followed by a few useful historical notes that provide context for what comes next.

3. ~30 mins

   Learning the traditional dances

   The repertoire includes:

   • Corfiot syrtos
   • Hasapiko, hasaposerviko and syrtaki (Zorba)

   The steps are taught first without music. Once the group is comfortable with them, the music is added. Teaching follows the level and pace of each group so everyone can take part, with or without previous experience. If the group is ready, an additional dance or extra figures may be introduced.

   
4. ~25 mins

   Exploring the traditional costume

   Guests discover the traditional costume of Corfu. The men’s and women’s costumes are presented piece by piece while up to four guests dress. Along the way, you hear about the costume’s history, the meaning of each piece and the occasions on which it was worn.

   Once everyone is dressed, there is time for photographs. The other guests then wear one characteristic piece: a tsoutsoumida for women or a tritsa for men.

   
5. ~5 mins

   A shared dance, then plate smashing

   Everyone dances a syrtos or syrtaki (Zorba) together while wearing the full costumes or individual costume pieces. At the end, each person smashes one or two plates.

   
6. ~10 mins

   Questions, a short wrap-up and a commemorative diploma

   There is time for questions and a short wrap-up. Everyone receives a commemorative diploma. Afterwards, you may choose to buy selected local products and souvenirs from the experience. We finish with a farewell and an invitation to leave a review.
