Classes for Children, Youth, and Adults

The Ottawa School of Ukrainian Dance (OSUD) provides dance training to students of all ages, levels, and backgrounds. OSUD's motto is “Ukrainian dance for all!” We welcome students of any age and level of experience.
​
Children as young as 3 begin in the You and Me class accompanied by a parent, guardian, or adult friend. As students progress through the School, they gain further confidence and skills in Ukrainian dance and performance technique. OSUD carries strong commitment to the creativity and discipline of dance, as well as to the development of original choreography.
