About Ukrainian International Ballet
Ukrainian International Ballet has its roots in the United Ukrainian Ballet Foundation, an initiative established after Ukrainian ballet dancers were forced to leave their homeland. In The Hague, dancers from different companies came together, united by their love of ballet and their determination to continue developing as artists.
The company is dedicated to preserving and promoting the Ukrainian ballet tradition internationally. Through collaborations with renowned choreographers and artists, Ukrainian International Ballet brings together classical ballet technique and contemporary influences. Their work demonstrates how dance can transcend borders, connect cultures and create space for new stories.
