ZoukRush Oct 2018 with Val & Vanessa
This Oct, Zouk Dance Academy is very excited to bring, for the FIRST TIME EVER, the fun, smooth and funky, Val Clemente and Vanessa Bonilha to Singapore! This will be their first trip to Asia, and we are very excited to have them here for ONE WEEK!
Val and Vanessa are very well known for their amazing musicality, cool body movements, and smooth, funky style. Besides using body movement to express musicality, they are also very knowledgeable in traditional Zouk movements. Their workshops are technical, their instruction clear, and they know how to make their lessons fun and inspiring. Above and beyond their knowledge of Zouk, these well-loved artistes are two of the friendliest Zouk artistes around, and social dancing with them is awesome!
Spaces for the workshops are limited! The moves will not be covered in the regular Brazilian Zouk classes, so don’t miss out on your chance to learn some important techniques. Register for your ZoukRush passes today!
