25.01.2022 After 2 great performances and a 2 week break, Virmalised is back at rehearsal tonight from 730!

25.01.2022 The feast is underway!

24.01.2022 Have you ever wanted to learn some rahvatants but live too far away from a dance group? Or did you do rahvatants many years ago but havent had the chance to dance for a while? Well Sydney Virmalised has the answer for you! This Monday (11th May) at 7:30pm, Sydney Virmalised are having our weekly dance rehearsal online via Zoom. Were calling everyone and anyone who is interested in learning a bit of rahvatants to join us on Monday. No prior dancing experience necessary, j...ust enthusiasm, willingness to learn and 1.5m of personal space :) Well be starting the session with a bit of yoga (jooga) to destress and clear our minds. This will be followed by practicing some basic steps and learning some pro tips on how to make your dancing look effortless. If this sounds like fun (trust me its very fun), then click the Zoom link at 7:30pm on Monday to join us! Zoom link: https://zoom.us/j/99398647474 Meeting ID: 993 9864 7474 Password: 1234 Näeme varsti! . Kas Te olete kunagi tahtnud rahvatantsu õppida, aga elate trenni asukohast liiga kaugel? Või äkki Te vanasti tantsisite, aga pole ammu tantsutrennis käinud? Nüüd pakub Sydney Virmaliste Rahvatantsurühm Teile põnevat võimalust! Sel esmaspäeval (11. mai) kell 19.30 toimub Virmaliste e-tantsutrenn. Nimelt toimub tantsutrenn Zoomi teel. Me kutsume kõiki, kes tahavad rahvatantsu õppida, isegi kui Teil pole tantsukogemust. Vajalik on ainult entusiasm, õppimise valmisolek ja 1,5 m ruumi . Esmaspäevane trenn algab joogaga. Peale joogat õpime põhisamme ja rahvatantsu pro-tippe. Kui see võimalus tundub tore (lubame, et on väga tore), siis avage Zoomi link esmaspäeval kell 19.30 ja tulge meiega tantsima!

18.01.2022 Can you wait till the tansipidu DVD comes out? I can't! Here are some awesome facts about this year's celebrations

18.01.2022 Ever wondered where the name "Virmalised" comes from? Different countries have different stories - but here you can see the phenomenon with your own eyes, as it was filmed in Estonia on the smaller big island, Hiiumaa, earlier this week! https://youtu.be/tLwfQMKX-u4

17.01.2022 Time to dust off your dancing shoes!!! Dancing is back on Monday nights from 7.30pm at Sydney Eesti MajaTime to dust off your dancing shoes!!! Dancing is back on Monday nights from 7.30pm at Sydney Eesti Maja

17.01.2022 Tere tantsjad! Our digital dancing continues every Monday from 7:30 pm (AEST) until 9pm.

16.01.2022 Unfortunately dancing has been called off due to sickness of many members and also many have already left the country! We will see everyone next week.

15.01.2022 Tere tantsjad! This Monday (8th June) there will be no Zoom dancing rehearsal as it is a public holiday. Also, the Monday after that (15th June) our AGM will be held instead of the dancing rehearsal. Everyone is welcome to join and give input, so we can plan for the year ahead. For more information about the AGM, visit the event page https://www.facebook.com/events/549197049090646/... Näeme varsti :)

15.01.2022 Just a reminder: No dancing for the next 2 Mondays. Have a safe and fun long weekend. On another note: The 50th was a success, photos to come shortly...

14.01.2022 Today is the first day of National Reconciliation Week (NRW), which runs from 27th May to 3rd June 2020. Sydney Virmalised would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land upon which we meet for our face-to-face dancing practices, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. We acknowledge that the Gadigal people have always nurtured, and continue to nurture, this land. We would like to pay our respects to the Elders past, present and emerging of the Eora Nation. ...This week commemorates the successful 1967 referendum and the High Court Mabo decision, two meaningful steps in the reconciliation journey. The theme for NRW 2020 is In this Together. This reminds us that through reconciliation, we are all in this together. NRW is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements. It is a time for us to create lasting, respectful relationships and communities that value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures, histories and futures. Heres the link to the Reconciliation Australia website, which has heaps of great events and resources https://nrw.reconciliation.org.au/

14.01.2022 Inspired by the Kaheksakand/Muhu Mänd (Eight-Sided Star/Cross) our icon symbolises protection, safety and the North Star (Polaris) as well as the Morning Star (Venus). Drawn in a singular stroke, the motif is adorned upon many traditional garments not only within the Baltic region but throughout the world. Accompanying the geometric motif are the spectacular colours of Virmalised (Northern Lights/Aurora Borealis). In Estonia, explanations for this phenomena include the light...s as magnificent horse-drawn carriages carrying heavenly guests to a spectacular celestial wedding, other stories include humpback whales playing games with their scales reflected into the night sky. The colours represent the multi-faceted nature of our community in Sydney and the merging of both traditional and contemporary folk dancing. Bordering the star, four dancers from North, East, South and West form a sõpruse ring (friendship circle) symbolising the interconnected bond we have with each other as we end each practice and performance.
