Meet us on the dance floor: Getting to Know Meredith Panayotopoulos

Meredith Panayotopoulos was introduced to and fell in love with all things Greek dancing and culture in college when she met her husband George. She spent 10+ years dancing, directing and co-general directing in San Jose, California. She was blessed to be invited with her dance group to Florina in the summer of 2015, where her love and passion for passing on the beautiful traditions of Greek dance and customs was deepend immensly. From the start she had an affinity for costumes and all of their beautiful and intricate detail work and has been able to use skills learned from childhood to help build costumes for the groups she has been involved with. She had to take a step back from directing as her family grew and currently she and her husband enjoy incorporating many of the beautiful έθιμα και παράδοσεις they have learned over the past 20 years through the years in how they raise their family.
