*********ZOUK 1A***********
Learn about and review your foundations and basics here.

Zouk 1A Course covers the first set of essential skills and fundamental patterns in Brazilian Zouk. 
In terms of essential skills, at this level we cover:
- Basic timing and rhythm,
-Posture,
- Leading and following with the body (including torsion), and
- Basic floorcraft with understanding of the tracks in Brazilian Zouk.
-Stepping (projection, redirection, absorption)
In terms of fundamental patterns, we'll cover:
- Basics (Basic on the spot, Side basic, and Linear basic),
- Viradinha,
- Send away,
-Walk around (the soltinho in lateral position)

- Lateral, 
- first version of Simple turn*,
- Simple side-to-side body undulations, and
- combining everything.

TO TAKE ZOUK 2, THE STUDENTS NEED TO, AT LEAST:
- be able to stay on the timing, both with and without a partner
- get in and out of lateral, basics, viradinhas and lead and follow with their entire body not just with the arms
- Leader: walk around the track of the follower,
- Follower: stay on their track.
--lead and follow simple turn

We'll develop the following skills:
- Basic direction changes in the Linear Basic (compass and foot placement)
- Slowing down the dance,
- Leading and following with the body,
- Understanding and playing with the tracks.
Patterns
- Elástico and variations,
- Vira/lateral
- Lunge,
- Simple turn linear, side, and from lunge
- Soltinho–2 variations, soltinho in lateral position and soltinho with no leads turn 
- Undulations
GOALS FOR THIS SESSION:
- same as Zouk 1
- be able to transition between the movements learned in Zouk 1 and Zouk 2A while keeping the timing solo and with a partner


**********ZOUK 3A***********
Zouk 3A will develop fluency and skill.

We'll continue developing the essential skills we've started in the previous courses. 
We’ll focus on: :
- Arm wrappings - Yo-yo and cuddles
- Bonus
- Lateral opening
- Traveling simple turn
- Soltinho****
-Apertura technique and compass technique
- We'll work on the transitions between everything that was learned in this and previous Basics courses.
Goals:
- be able to stay on timing consistently and slow it down,
- change directions in the basics,
- be able to combine the fundamental patterns, especially Lateral, Elástico, Bonus, Simple Turn, and Soltinho.

**** Soltinho where the leader also turns

********Head Movement*******
Eligibility: should be eligible for level 3 and either completed or concurrently taking 2 AND 3. This course will develop the basics of head movement in a safe and structured manner, putting balao on common footwork patterns. We will cover mechanics of active and passive head movement, unlocks and releases, common entrances and exits, and circular head movement, including balao apagado. 

*********Choreography options********
The solo choreography is a GREAT option to develop styling and technique. It is open to everyone of every level. There will be a performance option for those who would like to perform, at both Salsa in Hawaii and the Honolulu Zouk Marathon.


**********Lambada partnerwork**********
The lambada partnerwork choreography by Ry'el Zenzouk is challenging, as it is fast, lambada, and involves a variety of head movements and distinctive movements. It is a brilliant teaching choreography as it is musical and the movements are almost entirely socially lead-and-followable.  Because of the pace of learning, this choreography is by audition only and available to students with a solid background in performance or with considerable zouk/lambada experience.
