The series culminates in a special 2-hour, in-person workshop with Felipe & Natalia in Cork. This workshop can be enjoyed as a standalone experience, making it a perfect opportunity for anyone who simply wants to experience their teaching in person. At the same time, it will be highly complementary to the three online classes, allowing those who take part in the full series to build on what they have learned and take their Zouk journey even further.During this workshop we will focus on the Technique & Fundamentals that make your dancing more fluid, connected and dynamic.
Weโll explore how to:
โจ Improve your frame & connection;
โจ Create more flow in your dance;
โจ Make your movements more dynamic and expressive;
โจ Build smoother transitions between movements;
โจ Develop greater body awareness & control;
โจ Understand the fundamentals behind the movements โ not just how to execute them.
And weโll also explore trendy movements and concepts that are being incorporated into different dance styles, including Bachata, giving you tools that can enrich your dance beyond Zouk.***
