Ikariotikos or Kariotikos (as the locals call it) or Ikarian dance is a Greek traditional (island) dance, with roots from Ikaria. It is one of the most popular island dances of Greece.
There are two types of Ikarian dances:
The authentic Ikariotikos (where it consists of 4 different songs-purposes, which together or separately constitute the Ikariotikos dance), which is danced in their traditional festivals. Specifically, these are: the tsamourikos, the rachiotikos and the peramaritikos and the songs “Pera stou horio ti brysi” and “I simphethera”.
2. The song “Ikariotikos” or “My love in Ikaria”.
In the Ikariotiko dance, the dancers are held high by the shoulders. The male and female dancers often perform complex steps and turns, creating a dynamic and impressive dance.
