Ladies met several years ago at a difficult for themselves in life. From now implemented together some great charity events, however, “Marathon” – as emphasized – is the first on such a huge scale. Accept it funds will be transferred to Czestochowa Association for People with Autism Problems and for David, a patient with acute leukemia. The event of this goal takes place for the first time, but certainly not the last. Mr. announce its cyclical continuation.
Where did the idea for such a project?
Katarzyna Bak – Zumba Marathons in Czestochowa were already and have gained attention and popularity. We decided to do something different, and so created the event composed of three blocks of dance or Zumba, fitness and urbhanize. We decided it is also a good opportunity to help. After all, in our city, as throughout the country there are plenty of people who need financial support. It began to search our hearts and headed toward the autistic. Good circumstance was also in April, which is the month dedicated to autism. We got in touch with Czestochowa Association Helping People with Autism Problems and after a short conversation with Mrs. Barbara Kurek we knew that this is our bull’s-eye.
Ewelina Wychowaniec – They took the letter his sincerity and modesty. Our call asking if they would be interested in such action met with a very joyful and touching reaction. Ms. Basia, when she heard our decision, burst into tears. She said that when she first meets people who just want to help her. We, in turn, for the first time, we see that no one is waiting for the money, but helps. Cooperation from the beginning is in full swing. Teacher Association and parents of sick children are creative, looking for sponsors, have ideas for diversifying events, nay even spread leaflets. The action and the impetus given to the promises, perhaps exceeded our expectations, but the more pleased and more work. We will also raise funds for a sick David, a student of the School of i. B. Prusa in Czestochowa, who suffers from leukemia.
Włożyłyście Lord lot of heart, emotion and work …
K.B. – Three months we live in this project, do not operate in any other sphere of our lives. It is only our marathon.
And whence arose interest in autism?
K.B. – Environment and the problem of autism met while working with autistic children in a kindergarten. Children captivated me with his delicacy. Now, when Ewelina environment to get to know more deeply, the more we want to be with these people, so to the end. Really suits me schematic lives of people with autism. When you enter in their scheme, it really is a treasure, because the emotions and experiences that can be purchased by people with autism are invaluable.
E. W. – Our first meeting was shocking. We walked in bright tunics and boots, and they could not tear his eyes away from us. For us it was a little surprising. I have the impression that we loved from the first moment. We are pleased that they will be also with us at the party, of course, the children and the elderly, whose guardians agree. Zumba trained and already have some experience with last year’s “In the Alleys Health”, where they danced. Together with our welcome guests.

E.W. – Great support we received from MOSiR. Since the marathon is not a commercial event, they treated us kindly and firmly cooperate with us. They provided us with his contacts to publicize as widely as possible action. Huge thanks to Mr. Wojciech Nabiałek, for me it’s one-man band, with great inventiveness and quick methods of operation. Hala “Polonia” we have made available on Saturday during the event, but also the day before to prepare as much as possible. Thank you very much for that. We were able to also win a few sponsors who have opened hearts. For each patient, even the smallest good, it’s a huge thing. With the help of people of good will we can accomplish all the goals.
It will therefore energetically and hot …

We decided it only Nasser could lead this block. Barry went with him all the training. Block urbhanize lead the first and only Polish champion – Joanna Knob-Walczykiewicz. Asia is Lowiczanka and leads at home artistic agency and studio Ramp, a woman versatile talented: singing, dancing. Urbhanize only enter the Polish and I think the surprise of our participants, and many will find new inspiration. And finally, our beloved Zumba with a special guest from Berlin. This will be the Sulu Ayhan, an instructor of international class, very recognizable. Will be accompanied by eight instructors from Czestochowa and the surrounding area, who are with us very emotionally connected.

E. W. – Zumba draws too cool music and freedom in the classroom, and connects generations. The age range is from eight to ten years to sixty or even more years. Often come to us, we have daughters and grandmothers. In class there is no rigor, you can adjust the pace of exercises to their physical abilities. No need to carry an exemplary exercise, it is important that the ladies are moving, are smiling. Of course they overlook the tired, but happy. And this is a phenomenon Zumba.

Ladies first meeting afraid to make a move hip or shoulders, and after a month working their whole body. They are joyful, moving gracefully. They cease to be gray and sad.
