Dance History
Over 25 Years of Armenian Culture, Heritage and Tradition
The Hamazkaine Armenian Sydney Dance Ensemble (ASDC) was established in July 2000 through the unification of the
Sasoon Dance Group of the Hamazkaine Shant Chapter and
the Nairi Dance Group of the Hamazkaine Ararat and Nairi
Chapter. United by their passion for Armenian culture, young dancers came together to preserve and celebrate their
heritage through traditional dance. For over 25 years, ASDC
has brought generations together through performances, cultural celebrations and community events, inspiring young
Armenians to embrace their roots while building confidence, friendships and cultural pride. In 2025, ASDC proudly
celebrated its 25th anniversary, honouring its rich history and the dedication of its dancers, instructors and supporters.
Today, ASDC continues its mission of preserving Armenian
traditional dance and passing on its treasured cultural
heritage to future generations.
Our Culture. Our People. Our Dance.
