About Soulzouk:

The SOULZOUK style has been gaining increasing space with zoukeiros all over because of it’s contemporary look, with a basic premise: To respect the fundamental principles of the performance of human movement.

1. The relationship with the music - The style explores the melody.

2. A major innovation of movements - SOULZOUK uses “torsion” steps, “tables”, “torso flexions” and so many others, created by the different lead.

3. Differentiated lead - In SOULZOUK the gentleman learns to lead the lady not only with arms and hands, but with the whole body (arms, hands, legs, shoulders, torso, head ...)

4. Musical Variety - The style fits well in many styles of music from the Zouk itself to R & B, Hip Hop, Cabo Love ...

5. Great concern for the healthiness and / or comfort of the dancer. SOULZOUK’s movements and techniques were all examined by an expert in biomechanics, a physical coach, in order to obtain more gain with less effort, as it should be in all physical activities.
