At two years of age\, she made her debut as a folk dancer in Tulehoidjad (‘Torch Bearers’)\, the Portland Estonian folk dance troupe led by her mother. Her mother was born in Estonia and fled in 1944. Liina learned Estonian folk dances in the displaced persons camps in Germany\, where she lived for five years before migrating to the US. \nLiina became the leader of Tulehoidjad in 1985 and has continued as its director for 38 years. The troupe\, founded in 1950\, has performed at all of the West Coast Estonian Days\, many world-wide ESTO festivals\, mass folk dance performances in Estonia\, as well as countless local and regional festivals. It is truly bearing the torch of Estonian dance\, culture\, and traditions. \nIn 1999\, in Tallinn (Estonia) City Hall\, she was awarded the Ullo Toomi Award for her work. This award is given by the Estonian Folk Dance and Folk Music Association each year to the most outstanding Estonian folk dance director of the year. Liina is the only folk dance director living and teaching outside of Estonia to receive this award. \nIn 2016\, Liina\, together with her mother\, was awarded the 2016 Outstanding Achievement Award by the Estonian American National Council in recognition for her work in promoting and preserving Estonian folk dance and music. Through folk dancing and music\, Liina and her mother have been instrumental in keeping Estonian culture alive in the United States\, Canada\, and other locations outside of Estonia. Liina’s first year teaching at Stockton Folk Dance Camp was in 2024. \nRegister \nContact Ruthie Gasser for more details or to send dance requests for the afternoon party.
