Learning from Athens


DOKOUMENA presents a full work-out programme exploring various new ways of exercising Eleftheria (≠Freedom) in a contemporary authentic Greek context. 
This is not meant for domestic use only but rather it seeks to expand on a Pan-Hellenic and Pan-Europian scale and beyond. 
The 34 exercises are governed by ancient greek as well as contemporary hellene demo-cratic principles. 
We are once again generously sharing our indigenous queer values with the world.
