Jazz is her background, which she combines and intertwines with other genres to explore less known soundscapes. Ridina has collaborated with Czech musicians such as Floex, Vladimír 518, Načeva and many others. She has also composed music for several theatre performances.

In addition to playing concerts, she teaches, leads voice workshops for the general public and lessons for the elderly in a theatre. She is the founder of “Hlasohled” centre for working with the human voice. Recently, she aroused considerable attention with the theatre play and podcast “Sádlo” (Lard), for which she received several nominations and awards in the field of theatre and women´s rights.
