Marathon Days
Fanta building
Step into history and elegance at "Fantova budova", the breathtaking Art Nouveau gem of Prague’s Main Train Station. Designed by the visionary architect Josef Fanta and completed in 1909, this masterpiece captures the spirit of early 20th-century Prague — where travel, art, and architecture met in perfect harmony. Behind its grand façade lies a world of intricate stained glass, sculpted details, sweeping arches, and high ceilings that flood the space with daylight. Once a gateway to Europe for travelers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, today Fantova budova shines again after a meticulous restoration, revealing its original beauty and charm. It’s more than just a railway hall — it’s a living piece of Prague’s history. A space where the elegance of the past meets the vibrant energy of the present.

She has worked for various events all around Brazil including all of the major festivals in the country. And the list goes on internationally. Reaching almost every continent, she headlines major events in every one of them.
Over the years she has also collaborated with a list of singers producing music for Brazilian Zouk and Kizomba.

DJ Hush Z
Poland
For HUSHZ being a DJ is basically something he arrived at after patiently building this craft from many elements.
His will to live is driven by musical phrases which helped him with his main occupation as a classical music double bass player or obtaining musical degree. Obviously, that was not enough, so he also explored territories of composing and producing music from scratch using both physical instruments as well as digital modelling. On that field he also released two albums of zouk remixes and one album including tracks he composed and produced completely on his own.
Breathing music for most of his life made him fall in love with a wide variety of different genres. Years of listening, studying and making music gave him a deep understanding of emotional messages stated in songs which he appreciates very deeply to share with dancers he plays for.
Hundreds of performances he gave as a DJ and professional musician helped him develop the ability to read the audience at practically an instinctive level. It also taught him unquestionable professionalism and dedication. He never finds any issues with adapting to events he performs at, from cosy small meetings to full blown zouk congresses.
Also, as an active member of the zouk community he enjoys any non-musical contact with potential audiences greatly. This is mainly because he feels constant gratitude for having a chance to share music he loves with others.

What Dancers Say
"The mix of dancers was so wonderful, best social dancing i may have had, awesome dancers both leaders and followers, lovely open people. The overall high level of dancing helped me personally improve my dancing much more than i would expect on a normal festival. Even after over 15 years of dancing.All on 2. Even on Sunday night the level stayed high, whereas the other prague salsa marathons before it had dropped. Sound quality was spot on. The food was so delicious! I am greatful and psyched that i was invited. Thank you Zdenek."

Prague Salsa Marathon
"This has been one of my most favorite salsa event if not the most. First of all, the venue with nice dance floor makes it possible for us to dance for hours. The food is always plenty and deliciuos, and there always seems to be plenty of snacks to keep us going. It has the great astosphere, which reflects the personalities of the organizing team. This event should serve as a model for other marathons."

Prague Salsa Marathon
"The relaxed atmosphere during eating times (chilled Salsa music), the proximity of the food place to the dance floor (if you love a song, just hop on the dance floor). Your great efforts to make the location what it was is greatly appreciated. I would understand if you choose "a simpler to get ready" venue to balance your effort with the number of participants. Having the city tour was really adding to the experience and feeling of family - thanks! For me it was a great level mix of dancers, which I really enjoyed."
Pascal

Christmas Prague Salsa Mass
"This event is very special. What I like about the Prague marathons compared to others is the amazing combination of passionate dancers dancing to music played by passionate, experienced DJ's in a very quaint and comfortable venue, serving up very tasty buffet style meals and loads of snacks in between. I love how the snacks and meals are integrated completely with dancing area. The dancing is seemingly non-stop, starting from noon lunch/brunch until 6 AM in the morning. And perhaps the best is the general atmosphere of being relaxed and unpretentious, attended by friendly passionate dancers. Why I would recomend this event to my friends? Because it is a great way to dance a lot to really good music, to chill out with friends, and to get to know passionate salsa people much more closely than would be possible at larger, more formal salsa events."

Our Venues
Romantic Grotta
Romantic Grotta
The Grotta is the main attraction of the Havlicek Gardens and looks like a fairytale with its peculiar rock formations. The artificial cave features the arcade promenade which is quite unique in Prague. The Grotta dates back to 1871–1888 when it was intricately built by Moritz Grobe, a millionaire. After renovation in 2011, the cave was opened for public.
Fanta building
Step into history and elegance at "Fantova budova", the breathtaking Art Nouveau gem of Prague’s Main Train Station. Designed by the visionary architect Josef Fanta and completed in 1909, this masterpiece captures the spirit of early 20th-century Prague — where travel, art, and architecture met in perfect harmony.
