This thesis is chronologically mapping the life and the pedagogical carrier of Helena Vojáčková (1882-1967) in context of contemporary dance. The crucial source for this thesis was her inheritance in the Archive of National Museum in Prague. Helena Vojáčková, teacher and critic, participated in the birth of new dance culture formatting at the beginning of 20th century. After her university studies she focused on health aspects of dance. She graduated at Bess Mensendieck health gymnastics, further on she studied modern dance at Drury Channell and also at her former student Jarmila Kröschlová. She taught in Prague according to the system of Bess Mensendieck. She collaborated with dancers, rehabilitation specialsts and doctors. She wrote several studies and a book called "Pohybem ke zdraví a kráse ženy" (1959, 1961). From an artistic point of view she tended to proper understanding and performing the moves, she also wanted each move to be sensed in its expression. Teaching of this method was no more developed after her death but some of her students used inspirations of this system in their further choreographic or teaching activities. The most important of them was Jarmila Kröschlová.
