PLESNI UTRIPI

The regional dance showcases PLESNI UTRIPI provide an overview of the dance activities of children’s, youth, and adult dance groups and individuals active in cultural associations, institutions, and schools. These showcases embrace various dance approaches and styles, with the aim of presenting conceptually rich, clearly articulated, and convincingly performed dance miniatures.

Plesni Utripi is professionally overseen by regional selector Tina Valentan—a dancer, educator, and choreographer—who will select miniatures for the regional dance showcases in Murska Sobota and Selnica ob Dravi. From these regional showcases, national selector Snježana Premuš will choose miniatures for the PIKA MIGA National Mini Festival of Children's Dance Groups, held in October in Velenje, and the ŽIVA Festival of Youth Dance Creativity, taking place in November in Ljubljana.
