Dave Ganert, Shumka’s Artistic Director, is a prolific choreographer who has created more than 20 original main-stage dance-works for Shumka over the past four years; an accomplishment that is unequalled by any choreographer in the Ukrainian dance genre in Canada.

When it comes to charm, acrobatic energy and sheer passion, few dance troupes can top Canada’s Shumka Dancers.
