Young people were working together on terms and condition of the project. By working with tainers and teachers from Poland and Slovakia participants made a cultural event, where local society members were invited. Meeting in Poland was connected with the idea of dance as an uniting element, which breaks all barriers. During visit in Slovakia participants worked on team building and achieving goals. During the project young people developed their communication skills in foreign language, used ICT tools in communication with project partners, built the consciousness of importance of their mother tongues and culture, fought the stereotypes of foreign countries, dealt with career councelling. Using dance and movement increased the physical culture of participants and showed the dance as a safe method of fighting with the stress in everyday life. Most participants established long term relations with people in similar age from different country, it will have a great impact on positive approach towards co-operation with foreign people, both in private and in professional life, in future. It will also bring good self- esteem, open approach towards new intercultural experiences. Sharing with others those "first hand experience" will inspire other young people, their parents, family members and friends to increasing European mobility and building open and friendly approach to other cultures or attitudes.
