Instructors
Classes are led by talented and energetic teachers with a focus on developing skill, technique, artistry and enriching knowledge of Ukrainian culture through dance.
Dance Environment
Sopilka Ukrainian Dance School offers a professional environment for Ukrainian dancers!
Our studio, located within Kazka Dance Collective, provides our dancers with sprung floors, mirrors and barres. This type of environment is essential in building strong and healthy dancers
Costumes
Sopilka is the proud owner of an extensive costume wardrobe, allowing most students the opportunity to borrow a full costume provided by the school. There are instances however, where a Ukrainian shirt or blouse may be required for certain dances.
Each year, the school enhances its costume collection, with fundraising activities playing a significant role in this growth. At least one fundraising event is held annually, with proceeds dedicated to acquiring new costume pieces.
