How shocking and grotesque: Greece expelled all Tsamiks after World War II, and to this day, they are not even allowed to enter Greece, treated as "persona non grata" at the border. This is the real problem with "cultural appropriation," a hot topic in America: the Tsamik people are still denied their basic human rights by Greece, yet their culture is stolen, labeled as Greek, and people laugh while dancing it. Every time you dance the Tsamikos, remember - the people who created it were erased.

Fair attempt, but no. You can't even pass that as even remotely similar to actual cretan tradition. Let me sum up all the things wrong in this video: 1. Rarely is it called maleviziotikos. In Greece it is rarely ever called that. We call it Maleviziotis like 90% of the time. (that's the least of my worries) 2. The fabric belt. No. Just no. Only thing correct is the colour. You tied it completely wrong. 1st of all there is just SO much fabric hanging. 2nd of all, in Crete the "zonária" (zo-nAr-ya) as we call them are tight and the entirety of them is wrapped around our body. Having a loose zonári (zo-nA-ree) made you seem weak and not manly in the village. 3. The basic steps. the BASIC steps. You didnt even get THOSE right and you wanted to do tricks? "talimia"??? Maleviziotis consists of 8 steps forward and to the right, and another 8 backwards and to the right again. NOWHERE did i see anybody doing 8 steps. 4. The tricks the men did. OH MY GOD. Y'all, WHERE and WHEN did you see cretans dancing on damn CHAIRS??? I know i haven't. Trust me, there are SO many dances from greece where yes, there is a dance just involving chairs and it is called "καρεκλάδικος" and "ζειμπέκικο" look it up Im not even going to commend of the women's clothing where in reality is jaw-droppingly beautiful, that's is a money-related problem. I will close this comment with a mantinada, an actual one: Η κρητική παράδοση 'ναι μονάχα μία και δεν αλλάζει με και δεν αλλάζει με καμία ξένη μαλακία

Greeks and Albanians need to learn the reason why they share such commonalities and traditions rather than fight what dance belongs to whom. It reminds me those teenagers fighting which granddad had a bigger… organ without realizing that they are talking about the same person.

Çamiko is the dance of albania not ellada.

fustella is the most identifying element of Albanians.. you can use it but you can never change the truth ❤❤❤

im greek

Everything in Greece like national heritage belongs to state of Greece. Like Albanian, Macedonian, tracian, Thessaloniki, Cretan, cyprian , Athens etc.

The name Tsamiko literally means from Chameria or dance of the Chams. """Swiss musicologist Samuel Baud-Bovy noted that the Greek Tsamiko was not danced among Cham Albanians""".Its alternative name Kleftikos literally means dance of the Klephts, because it was associated with the klephts who fought during the Greek War of Independence (1821-1830).[4] Tsamiko is danced almost exclusively by men.

tsamiko is not a greek dance, is an Albanian dance from chaos whom the greeks exterminated in nazi style. wake up

this is my favorite dace of all time. It's soooo much fun to do!!

100% Albanian. There is no such a thing Greek

Peloponnesian traditional dances

Some Greeks are strange, I don’t get it, They call Tsamikos Greek dance they love it and they are proud, but they hate the Tsams, they killed them they, they stole their property, and they expelled them. They say Marco Botsari is Greek, he didn’t spoke Greek till he was a young boy, and so on. I am Tsam (Çam) my fathers house is still there and and he was not allowed to enter greece because he's a Tsam, he died without seeing his own house for the last time. Can you people please explain what the hell is wrong with you?

Is thát the Priest, joining the dance?

Jakob Philipp Fallmerayer: "Greeks are not real, they have Albanian and Slavic roots". Greek race is a false ideology, but very well manipulated by them, who are distinguished manipulators and perfidies..No drop of blood flows in the veins of the Christians present in Greece, writes Fallmerayer. Early in 1833 they sailed for Constantinople by way of Cyprus and Rhodes. In November 1833 Fallmerayer finally set foot in the Morea, where the party remained for a month before travelling north to Attica. There Fallmerayer claimed he was struck by the preponderance of Arvanitika, an Albanian dialect. The party arrived in Italy in February 1834, and returned to Munich in August of the same year. Upon his return Fallmerayer discovered that the Landshut Lyceum had in the meantime been moved to Freising, and that his position had been eliminated. Behind this early "retirement" lay Fallmerayer's "known convictions, which, particularly in religious matters, are incompatible with the teaching profession."He was instead offered an Ordinarius position as a member of the Bavarian Academy, where his first lecture concerned the "Albanisation" of the population of Attica. His lecture was answered with an attack on his theories by Friedrich Wilhelm Thiersch, and the two opposing lectures led to a controversy in Munich academic circles, as well as in the popular press. The controversy had a pointedly political dimension, with Thiersch representing the "Idealpolitik" position, according to which Bavaria should support the Greek state, and Fallmerayer advocating a hands-off "Realpolitik." This political polemic was further provoked by the preface to the second volume of Fallmerayer's Geschichte, published in 1836, in which he wrote that the Greek War of Independence was a "purely Shqiptarian (Albanian), not a Hellenic Revolution." He advocated furthermore the replacement of the German monarchy in Greece by a native regime. ........................

To everyone confusing this dance with the Epirotan Albanian Cham dances there is a difference between Tsamiko (Greek dance from central Greece) and Chamiko (Albanian dance from Epirus). They are not only danced differently but also have different meaning and completely different origins. The Albanian dance (Chamiko) takes it’s name from the Chamis river of Epirus (Chamuria/Chameria also takes it’s name from said river) and Tsamiko takes it’s name from the Greek word tsamis meaning brave. This is because the Tsamiko dance was originally danced by the mountain Klephts which is why it’s also caked Klephtiko(Klephts are Greeks who were never subjugated by the Turks and waged gorilla wars until our independence). Do you understand how they’re not the same?

Please go away Albanian nationalists.. let us enjoy our dances.. go and watch your Cham mam dam whatever it is on your web pages.. talk about amongst yourselves, it’s very annoying and I think it’s best to ignore your comments.. peace ✌️

Great job guys!!! But id like to mention that the last 4 steps of the dance aint the right ones .

"Tσαμικο" means ÇAM and is purely an albanian dance, not greek, at all.... For exampe "Osman Taka dance"; does exist any greek people named OSMAN ?! Οχι παιδια.......

Erkek etek giyermi ulan.

1:25 wtf was that

Arvanites brought fustanellë to Greece from their homeland south Albania (Toskëria). In tosk Albania fustanella is at home. There is the source, the cradle, in our mountains. From there it spread together with our warriors wherever they fought and wherever their families established - North and South. Where there is tosk Albanian presence, there is fustanella. Stronger the tosk Albanian presence, chiefer the presence of fustanella. In the mountains of South Albania fustanella was part of everyone's garment. Going further in north or south it begins appearing more incidentally, mostly as a demonstration of wealth, only for richer people. Where southern Albanians took their fustanella as immigrants, fustanella is just a curiosity, a decoration. Where it originated, it is an usual ordinary costume. After its independence and the big contribute of tosk Albanian arvanites into the this war, the Greek state wanted the fustanella to look like ancient hellenes tunic, so they shortened it. The result is this ridiculous female like mini-skirt, having nothing to do with the original long to the knee fustanellë, a proud garment of tosk Albanian warriors and kapedans, sign of bravure and heroism. Is that original fustanellë that gives sense to dances, and not this circus of cheerleaders pretending to wear "traditional" costumes and dancing "traditional greek" cham dance.
