FAQ: Q: Brazilian Zouk Lambada is a partner dance, can I come solo? A: Yes! classes will rotate so you will get to dance with new people. Ballet and Lambada are solo classes.
Q: What is the level of the classes? A: Classes with Mikael will be Open Level, Beginner Track classes will be geared toward new dancers!
Q: Will I need to dance the role traditionally assigned to my gender? A: Nope. You get to choose your lead/follow preference. In fact, we encourage students to learn their non-primary role at some point in their dance journey. Denver Zouk School is committed to creating a safe space for gender-queer and non-binary people to dance freely.
Q: What if I only dance Brazilian Zouk? A: In class, we will be dancing "on the quick" or "lambada timing". Since you know the basic patterns, you may decide to attend the beginner track classes as well--which are included in the Full Pass!
