00:00A long journey for a passionate cause.
00:07We have to show our culture and that it's still alive.
00:10They're here to share their expertise with Australian Ukrainians.
00:16Our dream is to express this culture in Australia.
00:20Dancers from all over the country have travelled to Adelaide
00:23to learn traditional dance from the best of the best.
00:26Spending the whole week dancing all day, rehearsing at night to remember
00:32and we're learning traditional choreography.
00:35The workshop is the first of its kind in Australia.
00:38To have the opportunity for Virsky to come out and teach us the proper way,
00:43the way it was intended, is actually a huge honour.
00:47But amid the joy, the realities of life in Ukraine are not forgotten.
00:53We hold our armed forces very dearly.
00:55The fact they keep us safe and we're alive because of them.
01:01There was a man who finished his career in our ensemble.
01:04He went to the front line and within three days he was dead.
01:09And while the grief is palpable, there's also unwavering hope and pride.
01:15We are responsible.
01:17If we go over the border, we have to talk about this.
01:19There are always some positive side because we finally got this point
01:26that life is so short so you just have to be happy.
01:30On Saturday, all of their hard work will be on display
01:36at a concert raising funds for front line defence,
01:40sharing cultural ties and a love of dance
01:43and smiling through it all.
01:45We'll say.
01:46What?
