DJ Morena
Slovenia
Dj Morena / Katja is dancing since she is able to remember. She grew up in a dancing family, starting with ballroom and experimented ever since with different styles and music, spending countless hours on the parquet and in front of the mirror. More than ten years ago she fell in love with her greatest passion - Salsa.
Almost 7 years ago she started as a Djane at local parties until she was given a chance to play abroad and slowly became more and more internationally recognized salsa Djane.
DJ Czequita
Czechia
DJ Czequita, based in Prague, is a rising star of the Czech salsa scene. A passionate salsa dancer turned DJ. Her journey with salsa began during her university years, and over time she explored all major salsa styles through extensive training and performing with a dance group. She also spent several years assisting on regular dance courses.
Inspired by her travels to numerous festivals across Europe and participation in choreographic projects and performances, she developed a deep connection with salsa on2 – her true passion. This love for on2 eventually led her to the DJ booth, where she found a way to bring this vibrant style closer to the local community, feeling it was something missing on the Czech scene.
Today, DJ Czequita plays regularly at popular salsa spots in Prague and has been invited to DJ in cities like Brno and Munich. Her sets are known for their musicality, energy and ability to keep dancers inspired all night long.
DJ V
Ireland
DJ V (AKA Verginiya) is an Irish, but Greece-based DJ and salsa social dancer.
She strives to play the best salsa music - including something for everyone from mambo, salsa dura, guaguanco, salsa romantica, instrumentals, charanga, son and chachacha.
Being an eager social dancer first, DJ V is very passionate about playing danceable music that gets your body grooving and wanting to get up and dance! Her music is groovy, energetic, and creates a flow that will keep you on the dancefloor for the whole set!
She broadcasts her monthly radio show Alegria on WorldSalsaRadio, where she plays new and old songs - as much for the feet as for the ear! On Alegria, DJ V shares information about each artist and track, and also some salsa history so that the raw spirit of salsa music and dance continues to inspire each and every one of us!

What Dancers Say
"Great music, people, and dances! Thank you and kudos to you and whoever helped organize this. Compared to other events, bean bag chairs, free water, tea, and fruits were one of the biggest selling points for me."
Danial
United States
Prague Zouk Marathon
"One highlight is really hard! Great floor and music are fundamental and they are top notch at this event, as is the stunning venue in the astonishingly beautiful city of Prague. The amazing organisation (attention to all the little details) and the yummy healthy food were an added bonus. But where are you without dancers so I'll go with "a really good mix of dancers from everywhere, without cliques, just sharing the love of mambo"."
Jenny

Prague Salsa Marathon
"Great people, excellent djs, splendid venue, variety of food, everything was really good!"
Andreea
Spain
Prague Salsa Marathon
"Overall it was sooooo wonderful!!! Great dancers, I loved the music, beautiful space with a good floor, delicious food (and as someone with dietary restrictions, I especially appreciated that I still had plenty of different things to eat), lovely to get to know folks over meals, well organized, and I really enjoyed the Christmas market walking tour as well. Thanks so much for all the hard work to make it happen!"
Emily
United States
Christmas Prague Zouk Mass
"The great, chilled and flowy energy of this event is amazing!"
Nina
Austria
Prague Zouk Marathon
"I was really happy to come back and feel this event like home. I'm thankful to the team and DJs for excellent work. As well, I've heard about complaints and discussions about music (and I think it always exists in all events and all communities). All of us have personal preferences and tastes in music, and I believe its greater and is greater to have different DJs at the event who are playing different styles, not only the popular trendy stuff, not only easy to dance stuff. And I have DJs I love and the ones I don't. But gives me opportunities as well. Opportunities to rest, opportunities to watch people, and learn from watching. Please keep music diversity on the marathon."

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.
