First Ensemble
The First Ensemble is our professional group of youth from the age of 15 +.
Many of these dancers have grown up with VK and have progressed through the other ensembles, but they always welcome new dancers! Our dedicated first ensemble is made up of high school students, college/university students, and young people starting off in their careers. They all meet twice a week to learn new dances, choreographies, and keep up their conditioning. Our First Ensemble has toured through Europe, performed live on Serbian National Television, and danced all across North America.
The First Ensemble has also performed all across the Lower Mainland, including at Greek Summerfest, the B.C. Children’s Hospital, Serbian Days, Chinese New Year celebrations, weddings, and other private events. If you’d like to inquire about having our First Ensemble perform at your upcoming event, please contact Goga at 604-880-4923.
