*** About our teachers ****

This time we will be able to learn from a great, talented, beautiful and very friendly couple: Michael Anderson Full and Aline Borges Full(https://www.facebook.com/alineemichael/) from São Paulo, Brasil.
They are really nice people and great dancers, who will mesmerise you with their elegant, beautiful and creative dancing. During the workshops, you can count on lots of zouk technique (explanation, demonstration and practice) that will help us learn more about comfortable, beautiful and precise leading and following.
Michael and Aline will stay with us for all four parties :)! Have a look at their dance :) :

Dj Kakah: I think everybody who has been dancing zouk for more than a week ;) knows the amazing work of DJ Kakah. As one of my friends jokingly remarked: "DJ Kakah? Many zouk songs start with these words" ;). Kakah is joining us with her amazing music at the parties, and you will also be able to learn from her during two musicality classes that she will be offering at our weekend.

You are all invited :)! And feel free to invite your friends - everybody is welcome :)!

********** 9. HOW TO GET HERE :) **********

*** AIRPORTS ***
.
Most convenient:
- Kraków Balice (KRK) - direct bus 252 to Żaczek for under 1 EUR
- Katowice Pyrzowice (KTW) - very good bus/shuttle connection with Kraków (circa 40mins)
.
Also good (but a bit further):
- Rzeszów Jasionka (RZE)
- Wrocław Strachowice (WRO)
RZE and WRO also have good and inexpensive connections with Kraków (prices from a few Euros)
.
*** TRAIN ***
If you are travelling by train, choose "KRAKÓW GŁÓWNY" (main railway station) as your destination.
.
.
*** TRAVELLING TOGETHER: FLIGHTS + TO/FROM AIRPORTS ***
Later on, I will add here a link to an online google spreadsheet, where people who are interested in looking for transport to/from airport together can put in their flight details, to arrange travelling together. We will be arranging the entries by airport and by time, so it will be easy to see who is arriving at a similar time as you and also to book the same flight if you want to travel together.
.
.
*** GETTING TO THE VENUES ***

>>> ŻACZEK and OLEANDRY - accommodation and all the parties
* OLEANDRY tram stop (tram 20 - direct connection from the Kraków Główny railway station; about 15mins; ticket: 3.80PLN/ca 0.9EUR)
* CRACOVIA BŁONIA bus stop (bus 252 - direct connection from Kraków Balice airport; about 40mins; ticket: 3.80PLN/ca 0.9EUR)
Travelling from other locations: any other bus or tram that goes to CRACOVIA, CRACOVIA BŁONIA or OLEANDRY bus/tram stops is also good :).
.

This is about 20 mins walk from Żaczek and Oleandry. If you are travelling from other locations:
* BATOREGO - the closest tram stop

ATTENTION! The buiding itself is a bit of a maze ;). Please, try to come 10-15 minutes before the workshops (or even earlier if you want to collect your pass on Saturday morning), to have time to change clothes/shoes/whatever ;). We'll be starting on time :)!

Jak wygrać lekcję prywatną z Michaelem i Aline, jak zapłacić ze zniżką i inne przydatne informacje:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RfLdHF-xJrrlHOuUFaiuacn5KIJu4o23TumlgtqQA74/edit?usp=sharing

Zaproszona para Michael & Aline (Sao Paolo, Brazylia) jest naprawdę świetna – to mistrzowie precyzyjnego, wygodnego i eleganckiego prowadzenia, szczególnie prowadzenia w ramie :). Podczas 10 h będą mieli czas żeby wytłumaczyć, pokazać i przećwiczyć z nami mnóstwo przydatnej techniki i naprawdę ciekawych elementów zouka :)!

DJ Kakah (Brazylia) i jej muzyki chyba nie trzeba przedstawiać nikomu, kto choć z tydzień tańczy zouka ;). Oprócz grania dla nas na imprezach, poprowadzi też dwie lekcje z muzykalności podczas naszych warsztatów.

Format „nauka plus imprezowanie” się nam dobrze sprawdza, więc tego się będziemy nadal trzymać. Z nowych fajnych rzeczy, które udało się zapewnić: 
* wszystkie imprezy będą w jednym miejscu. Tym samym co niedrogie noclegi.
* dla wszystkich uczestników będzie zapewniona woda podczas wszystkich warsztatów i imprez :)
* pozostałe kwestie podtrzymujemy :). Więcej szczegółów na razie w wersji angielskiej.
