From Zero to Hero
Change the way you think the dance
When you understand how the different footwork patterns for the follower work and how they are naturally connected, the dance changes: You stop using the memory to lead and start playing with the different possibilities in real-time. You create more and the dance is always interesting for the follower because she/he doesn't know what's coming next. There will be more flow and fun for everybody!
How will you reach that point? Learning step-by-step the different footwork patterns and combining them in very different ways:
- The Traditional Zouk Atoms: We start with the traditional footwork of Brazilian Zouk (5 courses) and then we add the technique for the head movements (3 courses). We recommend starting here to get you thinking about the way of the atoms. Ultimately, learning to combine the footwork and head movement is the key!
- The New Atoms Set 1: Yes! You're reading right! There are a lot of new footwork patterns out there waiting for you to create in your dance! We will learn 9 new atoms and how they open the door to new and amazing head movements (6 courses). Exciting stuff!
To get maximum benefit out of the Zouk Atoms lessons, we recommend training with a partner. If you can’t find a partner, that’s still okay!
