Et tarvitse aiempaa tanssikokemusta etkä omaa paria (tunneilla vaihdetaan pareja). Workshop sopii hyvin myös kokeneemmille tanssijoille, jotka haluavat kerrata perusteita ja puhdistaa perustekniikkaansa. Workshopissa käydään läpi zoukin perusliikkeitä ja -kuvioita sekä harjoitellaan viemistä ja seuraamista. —————————————— This three hours workshop is for complete beginners who want to learn Brazilian zouk from the start. It is ideal also to the dancers who want to refresh and polish their fundamentals. We will go through the basic movements of zouk and practice leading and following technique.
