Wifi & Trios is a 5-week intermediate-level Brazilian Zouk series designed and taught by Will Russ for Dançarina Events. This series is appropriate for dancers who have completed beginner BZouk training on fundamentals i.e. Basico & Lateral or equivalent training elsewhere. You should be solid in all zouk basic movement patterns, footwork, timing, and framework for connecting with your partner. If you're not sure if you're ready, contact us for a free level assessment.
Wifi is a no-contact lead-follow technique drawing from Lambada, the Brazilian cultural dance that Brazilian Zouk evolved from. Masters of wifi leading can conduct a dance with several follows at once (even dozens or hundreds!).
Trios refers to partner dancing between 3 people - 1 leader and 2 follows or 2 leaders and 1 follow (also called a triad). It takes special coordination and skill to master this technique, but it is a lot of fun! And you can expand from trios to quads, quintuplets...etc, etc...only space and imagination are the limit. Steal dancing is another playful subset of trios.
