On Saturday, a memorial stone commemorating Anna Raudkats, a renowned Estonian folk dance teacher, was unveiled in Forselius Park, Tartu. The stone marks the location of her childhood home, serving as a tribute to her legacy in the realm of traditional Estonian dance. As part of the celebration, participants performed 'Tuljak,' one of Estonia's most famous folk dances, which was choreographed by Raudkats herself.

The event gathered local dancers and community members who not only honored Raudkats's contributions to Estonian culture but also expressed their pride in their heritage through folk dance. The performance of 'Tuljak' resonated deeply, reflecting the importance of Raudkats’s work in preserving and promoting Estonian dance traditions, which are an integral part of the national identity.

This memorial stone serves not only as a reminder of Raudkats's formative years in Tartu but also as a symbol of the enduring legacy of folk dance in Estonia. The event illustrated how local communities can come together to celebrate cultural icons and highlighted the significance of maintaining cultural practices through generations, especially in the face of modernization.
