Within the framework of the Mashuk All-Russian Youth Forum, the Highlander Caucasian Dance Studio of the North Caucasus Federal University (NCFU) acted as the official organizer of the dance direction of the event.

The program, implemented with the participation of the main university of the region, was aimed at popularizing the dance heritage of the peoples of the North Caucasus and forming young people's ideas about the cultural and historical traditions of the region. Its structure includes educational, cultural and educational formats: master classes on the basics of Caucasian dancing, demonstration performances on the main stage of the forum, as well as interactive platforms aimed at getting to know the history and specifics of the dance culture of the macroregion.

During the master classes, participants mastered the basic elements and characteristic movements of traditional dances, studied the features of rhythm and plasticity reflecting the ethnocultural specifics of the region. The concert program, presented by the Gorets collective, demonstrated a high artistic level of performance and allowed to reveal the expressive means of Caucasian dance art.

The activities of the Gorets Studio within the framework of the forum contributed to strengthening intercultural dialogue and expanding opportunities for creative interaction between young people from different regions of the Russian Federation. The implementation of the dance program became one of the significant elements of the cultural and educational agenda of the Mashuk Forum and emphasized the role of NCFU as a center for the preservation and broadcasting of the ethnocultural heritage of the North Caucasus.
