What Dancers Say

"I enjoyed the live music so much! The way Sasha framed his sets, with intentions and meaning, really made me connect and enjoy the dancing even more. It felt that there was a purpose behind the music, we could see the effort and the drive that was moving the making of it. That clearly shows the DJ is engaged and not just playing songs that match with each other. On another note, all the thoughtful little details make this event so personal and intimate. From the bracelet with the unique message to the electrolyte water (and the note on not having too much of it) clearly states that this event is made for the participants. The food was amazing, with many options. I can't recommend this enough."

Prague Zouk Marathon

"Apart from the event already being incredibly well done, what stood out the most: - Love the new bands! - Good balance in music variety - Good choice to move the soup to the new spot so one doesn't have to stand in line just for that - Loved that there is fruit with every meal now. - Out of 14 marathons so far, this one is easily in the top 3! I'll point out a few more things in the review section that require a little bit of context."

The high level of organisation, especially after all the uncertainty of the pandemic times in which we’re currently living, is very laudable! From the ticket purchase and transfer to the check-in and staff, welcome drink, outstanding meal offerings, friendly and professional kitchen staff, top-notch DJ lineup, quality level of balanced leads/follows, this Fall Prague Marathon was, quite simply, excellent!"

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.
