SOKOL
Sokol (Czech Sokol Community) is the name of the Czech gymnastic association, which in the history of Czech and Slovak physical education took the position of not only the largest but also the most successful physical education organization. Miroslav Tyrš and Jindřich Fügner are considered the founders of Sokol. In its beginnings, the Sokol was inspired by the German Turner societies, which were based on the physical education of Friedrich Ludwig Jahn. In 1867-1868 Tyrš created the Czech gymnastic nomenclature and in 1868-1871 on the basis of the ancient kalokagathia the Czech gymnastic system, which he published in 1873 in the work "Základové tělocviku". Both founders of the association from the beginning promoted its complete apolitical character and aimed at the physical and moral growth of the Czech nation. On the contrary, Julius Grégr and other young men tried to enlist the Sokol in the service of Czech national emancipation. ( wikipedia.org)
