Hi there! I sincerely appreciate the video for its strengths.

I've just started experimenting with this dance and would appreciate an explanation of the similarities/differences between the old, new, and aptaliko versions. I have a dance background and different forms of dance and rhythms interest me a lot so if someone with intensive experience can share a little or a lot of detail on the form and its 9/8 timing, it would be appreciated.

@kd22221 HI Mate, thnx, the info you request is best explained in the book: Πέτρος Κούρτης - Μαθαίνοντας & Εξερευνώντας / Τουμπερλέκι Νο 1. No Dancer will be able to answer your questions, and youtube comments will confuse you much much more, trust me on this. The difference with aptaliko is simply where in the rhythm you start playing, it starts in the 'middle' (not clear, I know) The old and new style beats have differently placed accents. Read the book, its in music notation.

[kd22221]

@greekhop Thanks for the response! Where do I get a copy of this resource? I do hear accents being placed on different beats in our music so I thank you for verifying that point as a difference in the different forms. In the meantime, on Youtube, I discovered a drums rhythm video demonstrating 9/8 rhythm and will be studying it this weekend. Thanks!!!

you can't teach this it comes from the heart.

[greekhop]

@sofuengy Yeah thats what they say when youve grown up around something all your life,and you learned it without ever trying to.For the rest, there are lessons, which are 'from the heart', and practice hard work and effort 'from the heart' and improvement over time 'from the heart' till finally you also know how to do it 'from the heart'. The reason most non-Greeks cant do it well is cause they dont pay attention to details (not shown here) and only make half an effort, thats the missing 'heart'
