AUSTRALIA'S BIGGEST GREEK DANCE SCHOOL,
THE MANASIS SCHOOL OF GREEK DANCE AND CULTURE,
participates in the Greek National Day Glendi
Sunday 24th March, 2024
Hellenic Museum , Melbourne
________________________________
A LOVE, A PASSION, A WAY OF LIFE...
Over the past four decades, and together with the ever-growing experience of its students and two instructors, the MANASISSchool of Greek Dance and Culture has set unmatched, unrivalled standards, in execution, choreography and discipline.
One of the school’s fundamental beliefs is to continuously strive to present a new movement, a new position, a new idea, differing from the customary formation, to show that dance too, just like art, evolves.
...we must understand where we come from, in order to know where we want to go...
The Hellenic Museum in conjunction with the Greek Media Group hosts an annual GLENDI in honour of the Greek National Day, with an incredible lineup of dance, music, culture and flavours!
Concurrently, the event celebrated the 30th Year Anniversary since 3XY Radio Hellas hit the airwaves, and gave guests the opportunity to reflect on its immeasurable contribution across our cultural landscape!!!
Students from the MANASIS School of Greek Dance and Culture performed traditional Greek dances and hosted numerous dance workshops for all attendees!
