The announcement, made on Instagram, praised Luba Mushtuk for her exceptional contributions since joining as an assistant choreographer in 2016, later becoming a part of the professional dancer lineup. Known for her professionalism, creativity, and expertise, Luba has left a lasting impact with her unforgettable performances and elegant style, both on and off the dance floor.
