2009

As part of the dance4life ambassador’s mission, DJ FEEL has recorded dance4life Russia’s anthem - dance4life Russia. The anthem was recorded together with Vladimir Pozner, with of course a great video clip to accompany it. The video was included in his album “The Concert”.

During the open-air event on Krestovsky Island in St. Petersburg, the Moscow dance4life team, together with St.Petersburg and Gatchina dance4life volunteers, distributed informative materials, organized flash mobs and a fundraising event. In Moscow Crocus Expo - the largest exhibition complex in Russia - tens of thousands of quality dance music fans and the most current electronic DJs of the world gathered at the legendary event. Over the years the festival has become something more than just a dance event. The technical equipment is comparable with that of the best shows of the world, the stage performances are created by the best directors and producers and performances and installations are exclusive.


2008


In 2008 dance4life Russia was active in 16 regions, reaching out to about 20,000 youth! Quite a challenge, especially if you see how big the country is! But with its 80 teams and 400 volunteers working in the teams they managed to reach the 20,000 youth who all actively joined in in the heart connecting tour. A great number of them continued with skills4life or act4life or both, depending on the region they live in as not in every region it is allowed to teach life skills in the schools.

Some youth experienced very special heart connection tours as ambassador and famous pop star Alexey Vorobyov often joined in in the action.

Considering the size of the country there will be more than one dance4life event in Russia, so that youth do not have to travel across the country. The event in Moscow will be attended by approximately a 1000 youth and will have an internet connection to other events in Russia going on.

Big stars at the event in Moscow, DJ Feel, Alexey Vorobyov and off course the agents of change who have shown their activism and commitment.

2007

Schools4life began with the heart connection tour in the sixteen different regions in Russia where dance4life is. In 2008 schools4life will continue in these regions with skills4life.

Marina Filimonikhina, a 16 year old dance4life volunteer from St. Petersburg said, “I would like to know about HIV and AIDS and be able to inform other people about it. Now I have got a chance to do it.”
