It was an honour to perform at the Niagara Ukrainian Family Festival (NUFF) this past weekend in Niagara Falls.

Our senior dancers welcomed guests during the Opening Ceremony with the "Pryvit" dance. And through the rest of the day our beginners, juniors, and intermediate dancers performed for the crowd.

This was our sixth and final performance for the season - thank you to everyone who came out to watch our dancers perform.

We take pride in sharing our culture and traditions with the community and appreciate the recognition from the festival.

Then and Now.
2025 > 2026

Our dance group has grown so much from last year to this year and we are thrilled to be able to teach Ukrainian dance to so many youth in our community.

We value and take pride in our culture and believe it's important to continue our traditions here. Our multicultural heritage is what makes us special.

Thank you to all our dancers for committing their time and energy to our group; showing up every Sunday night for 10 months of the year, putting all their strength, energy, and heart into our dances.

To our dancers, YOU make our group what it is 💙💛

Congratulations to all of our dancers on wonderful performances at our End of Year Recital last weekend.

Every one of these kids worked hard all year and we could not be more proud of all they've accomplished this season - new dancers, new classes, new studio, new dances, and a record number of performances.

Thank you to the parents and our community who continue to support our dance group and keep us going.

We're looking forward to a few more shows this summer and a great next year!
