On 7 February, the dance ensemble “Neposedõ” took part in the international competition “Baltic Swallows 2026”, which took place on the stage of Viimsi Artium. Our ensemble was represented by three age groups and for each of them this performance was really important.

The group “Solnyshki” took to the big stage for the first time with the dance “When the forest awakes…” (directed by Liina Baranova). In the category “Children’s dance, 8-10 years”, the young artists were awarded first prize – a great start and a brilliant debut!

In the category “estradic dance, 11-13 years old” the group “Zvjozdochki” performed the dance “In our yard!”. (directed by Elvira Prosvetova) and won the title of 1st prize winner and received a special award from jury member Mehis Saaberi.

This weekend’s absolute premiere was the dance “Unframed” (directed by Anna-Maria Laius) performed by the group “Lastotschki”. In the category “contemporary dance, 14-16 years old”, the number was awarded the title of 1st prize winner and a special prize from jury member Annabel Piirma.

Congratulations to our talented dancers and teachers on their excellent results and we wish them further creative success, inspiration and brilliant moments on stage! We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the organisers of the competition, Polly Dance Theatre, for the warm atmosphere, the high level of organisation and the excellent gifts given to the participants.
