ERGONOMICS IN HARMONY WITH MUSIC 🎵

A unique workshop led by Kristína Buľáková, a physiotherapist who sees the body as an artistic instrument. Fascinated by the beauty of movement and the wisdom of the human body, she helps people move with ease, awareness, and without pain. 🙌

Her passion lies in finding balance between function and aesthetics — so that your body can create freely, whether you're playing, singing, or simply being. 🌿

We’re excited to have her on board this year! 😊

As part of this year’s Summer Time Music, participants can look forward to creative workshops. One of them will be led by Silvia Kaščáková – poet, translator, and lyricist. ✨

Over 100 of her song lyrics have been set to music in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. She writes across genres – from pop and chanson to gospel, classical music, and children’s opera. 🎭

She collaborates with artists like K. Koščová, K. Knechtová, Komajota, Kandráčovci, and more. Since 2023, she’s been writing lyrics for the children’s TV show Čekyho hudobný labák, featuring Desmod, Celeste Buckingham, and others. 🎶

She adapted lyrics for the EFA-nominated film Keď život chutí (2024), and has published poetry collections Kŕmiť leva and Rakúsky domov dôchodcov. 📚

As a translator, she brought works by W. Szymborska and M. B. Kielar to Slovak readers. She’s also the author of children’s books like Ako Paľko Dobšinský zbiera rozprávky and Osem miliárd básní. 🎤

We can’t wait to welcome her! 😊
