CLASSES
At the heart of the Ukrainian Cultural Association is our dance classes. The Lloydminster Malanka Dancers offer classes from ages 3-adult for all abilities and cultural backgrounds. If you are looking for something new, rooted in vibrant culture and traditions, and want to have fun, try Ukrainian dancing!
SCHEDULE
We offer classes on Tuesday nights for our younger students and Wednesday night for our senior students. In addition to regular class time, the Malanka dancers enjoy many workshops to help them hone their skills. The Club also boasts many opportunities to perform at festivals, the Dine and Dance and our yearly Heritage Concert. Because culture is a huge part of our Club, throughout the year, we host many Zabava's (parties) and special events to mark integral events in the Ukrainian calendar.
