This training week focuses mainly on dancing, so it is also suitable for people with no ambition to teach. If you want to take your dancing to the highest level. Some of the areas covered are: footwork, posture, communication, rhythm, musicality, video analysis, upper-body isolation, creativity, musicality.

In 24 hours we will take you from the fundamentals of zouk to mastering the hardest techniques. This will give you an insight into the possibilities of zouk dancing in all its facets. For people who perform or want to perform this is a must as you will receive video feedback and one-on-one sessions during the week that really focus on you as a dancer with analysis of your strengths and areas for improvement.

In the Embodying weekend part 2 it is all about technique. We will focus mainly on hair-movements and spinning. Of course the material of part 1 will be repeated and the earning goals of grounding, posture, relaxation are still there. using the six pillars of the DA method movement, dynamics, connection, creativity, musicality, body-control will be the in every exercise we do.
In spinning the emphasis is on pointing the feet, bending the knees, keeping the inner leg together, sustained release breathing and making a frame and spotting.
For hair-movements, much of the same applies, but we try to get the upper part of the chest to surrender. curving, bending and tilting in a controlled an inward way. working on flexibility through movements.
Of course these technique will be done solo and couples. Then lastly how to apply this to the music, following the melody but not letting go of the rhythm using it to make grand finishes with spinning and hair-movements
