You Can Dance – Po Prostu Tańcz! season 9

The ninth series of You Can Dance - Po prostu Tańcz! premiered on TVN on 17 February 2016. This series was changed to the new format. The judging panel was extended by winner of the first season Maciej Florek and finalist of the same season Ida Nowakowska, who joined original judges Agustin Egurrola and Michał Piróg. Kinga Rusin didn't return as judge due to her commitments as host of an upcoming series Agent - Gwiazdy, a celebrity version of The Mole on TVN. Patricia Kazadi remains the host of the series.

Judges' auditions began on 7 January 2016 in Warsaw and ended on 12 January 2016.

Auditions
Open audition began on 9 December 2015 in Wrocław and ended on 4 January 2016 in Warsaw.

In a change from previous years, open auditions are not immediately followed by filmed auditions with judges and a live audience on the following day. These instead took place on 7, 8, 11 and 12 January 2016 in Transcolor Studio in Warsaw. The 36 selected dancers will then take part in a choreography camp in Malta.

Top 36 dancers
During the auditions judges picked 36 dancers. These dancers were taking part in choreography camp in Malta.

These dancers were shown only in youcandance.tvn.pl website extras.

These dancers earned the tickets after the choreography round.

Returning dancers
This season there were some dancers returning from previous seasons.
