Edmonton School of Ukrainian Dance & Vohon Ukrainian Dance Ensemble

This year the Edmonton School of Ukrainian Dance is celebrating its 35th year, and over the years we have gained plenty of recognition for being a leader in bringing Ukrainian dance into the community. The Edmonton School of Ukrainian Dance has progressed in taking Ukrainian dance into the next millennium. The school consists of over 80 students, ranging in ages from 3, with our beginners’ class, to 65 years young with Vatra, our adult class. Under the direction of Ken Kachmar and instructors Trish Kushniruk, Debbie Kachmar Potter, Andrew Tyrkalo, Matthew Karpiak, Mikaila Petrov, Kennedy Kachmar, and Shaughnessy Potter we continue to specialize in Ballet, Character Dance and Ukrainian Folk Dance with a focus on child development. Children are taught systematically, following sequential instruction, and learning through fun and repetition.
