StarDance dancers face low pay amid contest winners

Former StarDance dancer and choreographer Marek Dědík has criticized the low compensation provided to professional dancers on the show. Dědík stated that the financial rewards are insufficient to sustain his primary career, noting that dancers are often only paid for the broadcast episodes rather than the extensive hours required for training and choreography preparation.

While media reports have speculated on specific earnings—suggesting professional dancers might receive between 20,000 and 30,000 CZK per episode—Czech Television has denied these figures, labeling them as speculative and noting that specific remuneration details are part of private contracts.
