On April 6, 2025, Kyiv once again became the center of dance art. The 35th anniversary "Parade Nadii" was held - a competition with the longest history in Ukraine in the field of ballroom dances.

The organizers of the competition - Valentina Fedorchuk (Honored Coach of Ukraine in Sport Dance, Judge of the highest category of the World Dance Council) and Alena Fedorchuk-Lemishko (Champion of Ukraine in the Latin American program) received almost one and a half thousand athletes from 109 clubs from all over Ukraine. Dance steps in the European and Latin American dance programs were evaluated by a judging panel of 70 referees from the USA, Germany, Finland, Moldova, as well as the best coaches of Ukraine.

The tournament has been supported by the co-founders of the Foxtrot brand, Gennadii Vykhodtsev and Valerii Makovetsky, for 22 years.

“This year, Parade Nadii is 35 years old, Foxtrot is 31. This is a tandem of experienced and sought-after masters in their fields of activity, to whom athletes trust their growth, and buyers their comfort,” says Gennady Vykhodtsev, co-founder of the Foxtrot brand. “And thanks to our cooperation, spectators and fans of the tournament have been enjoying a spectacular show for 35 years.”

As part of the “Parade Nadii,” a traditional competition for the “Foxtrot Cup” was held – a prestigious award that represents the highest level of skill.

“This is the most difficult dance in the European program, because you have to take 3 steps for 4 beats. "Traditionally, the strongest couples perform in foxtrot competitions," explained the competition judge Yuriy Vasyutyak, the champion of Ukraine in 10 dances, a finalist of the European and world championships, and a tournament judge.
