Finally, we managed to nail down Kadu to be on the show! Considering he only found Brazilian Zouk in his early twenties, he has become a huge icon and influencer in the dance scene - known for his incredible partnership with Larissa Thayane and their unique choreography skills and teaching around the world. One of the directors of the Brazilian Zouk Council and a catalyst in growing the scene. We are more than honoured to have him open up to us on this weeks Let's Talk Zouk.

Walter has quickly become one of the top dancers in the Brazilian Zouk scene and is now a very successful travelling artist in his own right. 
Full of humour and energy we explore his journey and his philosophies surrounding dance and life. 
Another great listen, and we thank you all so much for joining us.

What can we say about Carlos? For anyone that's ever done a class with him knows how fun they are! Always with a huge smile on his cheeky face, it's no wonder that he is loved all around the world. 

Partners with Fernanda, they are the perfect couple and a huge catalyst in growing Brazilian Zouk around the world. They run Prague Zouk Congress, one of our favourite events of the year.. If you haven't been.. go!
