The Polish Folkoric Ensemble ‘Syrenka’ from Ashfield, Sydney has a rich 55 year history of energetic and dynamic performances. Syrenka has grown to more than 100 dancers and is now one of the biggest Polish Folkloric Ensembles in Australia, rehearsing weekly in Ashfield and Ryde.

Syrenka debuted at the National Shell Folkloric Festival for the opening of the Sydney Opera house in 1973. Also performing at the Opening ceremony of the Sydney 2000 Olympics, at all PolArt festivals in Australia since beginning in 1975, the World Festival of Polish Folkloric groups at Rzeszow in Poland in 1999, 2002 and 2019, papal visits, consular occasions and throughout Australia at concerts and multicultural festivals.

Syrenka has an extensive range of authentic costumes from Poland, supplemented by locally handmade costumes by our dedicated group of talented volunteers, which allows it to have a large repertoire of dances. Syrenka aims to promote Polish culture, but also to educate its youth about Polish traditions and language. Syrenka distinguishes itself by being a folkloric dance group that rehearses and performs to live music.

Syrenka’s style of dancing is fun- beautiful costumes, singing, acrobatics and unique traditional choreographies which tell a story the audience can enjoy.

Syrenka practices every Wednesday here at the Polish Club in Ashfield, juniors at 6pm, intermediates at 6pm, seniors at 7pm and folk for life at the beginning of the month at 7:30pm. Head to their instagram @syrenka_sydney for more information.
