Yachminka Ukrainian Dance Ensemble

Community: Russell

BITAEMO!  Yachminka Ukrainian Dance Ensemble is celebrating 25 year of dance in 2016. Founder of the club, Lenore Fenton, was inspired to start a Ukrainian Dance Club and 25 years later the Yachminka Dance Ensemble continues the art of traditional Ukrainian Dance.

Yachminka is truly a family club and all the parents work hard to help organize many events such as Malanka (New Year’s) and our annual competition from April 17-19, 2017. Please join us for the competition and enjoy clubs from Manitoba and Saskatchewan as they showcase various regions of Ukrainian dance.

Encouraging children to participate in Ukrainian dance not only provides many opportunities but strengthens Ukrainian traditions and culture.
