Introducing Plesati Slovenian Dance Group.
Plesati is a Slovenian folk dance group based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is comprised of Canadian Slovenians aged 5 to 80+ who are interested in learning about Slovenian music and dance.
Very few of the participants have ever been involved in a Slovenian dance group, so this is a way to teach them about folk music and dance from different regions of Slovenia.
Although it is a multigenerational dance group open to dancers of any age, there is a special focus on the youth, with the majority of participants between the ages of 6 and 28.
In addition to dancers, Plesati is also a community of Canadians with Slovenian roots who are eager to re-discover and celebrate their Slovenian heritage. This group brings together both younger and older generations to collaborate, share cultural traditions, and bond through their love of folk dancing.
