MOJA VLAST

CZECH-SLOVAK DANCE GROUP


The folklore ensemble Moja Vlast was founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1945 in order to preserve homeland customs from generation to generation. Authenticity is a key aspect of the director's vision. From costume choices to music selection, dance steps and choreography, Moja Vlast seeks to accurately portray and preserve the folk traditions of its ancestors. Moja Vlast has been warmly received while performing all over the United States and in the Czech and Slovak Republics.

Moja Vlast has received many awards for the interpretation and authenticity of the dances and costumes. Prestigious awards, such as Miss International Holiday Folk Fair 1996, Miss Czech-Slovak Wisconsin State Queen 1999-2000 and 2005-2006 and National Czech-Slovak Pageant 2000-2001 - 2nd place have been proudly attained by Moja Vlast's members.

Moja Vlast is a student organization at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin under the direction of Sonka Suvadova Tostrud and Sonia Anna Riecan.
