A tribute to Crete’s folk culture 

Founded with the aim of preserving the tradition, history and folk culture of their country, this Cretan folk dance group bring an authentic touch from Crete to your event or special occasion.

Pentozali: the traditional dance of Crete 

A purely martial dance, pentozali has also been considered a ‘war dance’. It represents the uprising, heroism and hope of the Cretes. A vibrant dance characterised by high jumping movements, dancers hold each other’s shoulders and make a circle that rotates at different speeds. 

Offering flexible and scalable lineup choices, our Cretan folk dancers can fully adapt to your brief. Although traditionally performed by men only, you can now book both male and female dancers for your event. On top of that, they offer stage and roaming performances. 

Suitable for a wide range of events, Pentozali dancers are the perfect choice for corporate events, weddings, private parties, cultural events, festivals, concerts, theatres, etc. Dressed in traditional Crete folk costumes, our Crete folk dance group is guaranteed to bring a genuine touch from their country to your special occasion. 

Top Tip:

Pentozali dancers can be joined by live musicians upon request. They can also interact with your guests by teaching them some basic moves after their performance.
