The story behind the project
Jana is the mind behind combining dance, health and helping others into one community event for Zlín. She is an educator and project manager who has led Ústav školství z.ú. since 2014, focusing on innovative education and student support. In her teaching she draws inspiration from the legacy of Jan Ámos Komenský (Comenius), and since 2006 she has volunteered with Junior Achievement ČR, an organisation founded in Zlín in 1992 by Tomáš Jan Baťa.
Who'll be there
The dance, the music and the atmosphere will be watched over by people who live creativity, movement and the courage to go their own way.
A longtime host of the prestigious X-Games and dance marathons in Rožnov pod Radhoštěm, bringing the Dance for Health Zlín program a friendly atmosphere and just the right energy.
He'll be the musical guide for the whole day, from the very first dance steps to the closing party. The evening finale will be enriched by a live performance from the F-Dur Jazz Band, featuring original jazz arrangements of Michael Jackson songs, followed by the ceremonial announcement of the winners and DJ Křendy's closing dance set.
Founders of Dance Studio Starlight Zlín, overseeing dance quality and fair play on the floor.
Co-creator of the Mycello project, 3D-printing cellos — an inspiration in innovation and the courage to blaze your own trail.
They'll sing live for you, backed by the F-dur Jazz Band.
“Music has been close to my heart since childhood. I feel most at home in jazz, funk and pop, which I love for their energy, rhythm and emotion. Singing, for me, is a way to share the joy of music and connect with the people around me.”
“I believe good music doesn't need borders between genres. My experience with folklore, soul, blues, rock and jazz naturally blends together in how I perform. Every show is a chance for me to share with the audience the energy and emotion that live music brings.”
Every step helps
We support children and young people on their path to safety, independence and new opportunities.
Their story coming soonWe support an organisation that creates space in Zlín for support, understanding and a dignified life.
Their story coming soonAfter the first edition, we'll publish the concrete results and a transparent story of the impact here.
