Georgian Dance

Georgian dance is a celebration of life and of Georgia’s rich and diverse culture. The mountain dances, such as Khevsuruli or Mtiuluri, are different from valley or lowland dances — e.g. Acharuli and Davluri. The costumes are different for every

dance and resemble the clothing of the past in different regions of Georgia

The dances perfectly capture the natural gracefulness and beauty of Georgian women and the courage, honor and

respectfulness of Georgian men. The male dancers perform

of “block” shoes. The female dancers “glide” like swans.
