WHAT: Brazilian Zouk Lessons
Welcome to Brazilian Zouk (7:15-8:15pm) w/ Rotating Teachers
Learn some of the basic steps and lead/follow technique for Brazilian Zouk - no experience or partner necessary. This beginner-friendly class will get you dancing right away whether you're new to social dance or you've been dancing for awhile. Drop-ins are welcome any week, but we start a new cycle on the first Monday of every month and cover a set of fundamentals each month.
Solo Technique & Drills (7:15-8:15pm) w/ Lunna
In this class, we will explore and drill topics that make your balance more consistent, your footwork more solid, your posture more graceful, and your moves more fluid and flowy. Solo Technique & Drills works on the most common and essential Brazilian Zouk fundamentals, covering foundational elements like weight transfers, torsion, balance, turns, and other related side topics. These techniques are the building blocks of our dance, and we'll get to play and learn with them in this class.
Fundamentals Variations (8:30-9:30pm) w/ Lunna
Develop your dance by learning variations of fundamentals. This partner class for people who are comfortable with Brazilian zouk basics will help you take your dancing to the next level. We'll focus on lead/follow technique as well as fun variations you can use in your social dancing.
Practica (9:30-11 am)
Practice what you've learned in a safe environment - lights on, and you're free to ask questions of each other and instructors.
