⚫️ FOUNDATION
Going into the very detail of the foundation of one-foot-spins & counterbalances. How to execute, how to lead and follow safely. Since we will have this time to work exclusively on this one technique we can go into all the drills and all the little details, to finally make you master this technique.
FOR: intermediate-advanced zouk, bachata & kizomba dancers
⚫️ INTEGRATION
On the second day we will work on integrating your new skill into Bachata or Kizomba. The first part of the class will be dedicated to go through the foundation technique and how to apply it within the basics of your dance and the second part of the class will be dedicated to find possible variations in your dance.
FOR: intermediate-advanced zouk, bachata & kizomba dancers
⚫️ VARIATION
On the last block of the weekend we will use those foundation techniques and find variations and possibilities to transition effortless between different kinds of advanced counterbalances and spins to create those incredible movement variations you've seen.
We will have the time to train advanced techniques and transitions, that you usually don’t have time to train on.
FOR: advanced zouk, bachata & kizomba dancers
⭐️ THE TEACHERS ⭐️
⭐️ WILSON: from São Paulo is an incredible dancer as lead & follow and he has the incredible ability to keep all of his followers perfectly in axis while doing the craziest variations of spins & counterbalances. He has thought counterbalances many times including to other dance professionals from lambada, bachata & other dancers.
⭐️FELIPE & BRUNA: from Curitiba are THE masters of one-foot-spins. There is nobody who spins like them and who has such a unique concept of teaching how to spin effortlessly. They are absolute specialists in this topic and in Cologne for the first time.
⭐️ STEFAAN: from Belgium/Aachen is one of the very few leaders who effortlessly uses Zouk techniques in Bachata and even on the socials he can smoothly make his followers execute counterbalances in Bachata without them even realizing.
⭐️ MAXWELL & SONJA: from Cologne are incredibly versatile dancers with knowledge in Kizomba, Afro, Lambada & Zouk and besides being amazing technical teachers they are among the pioneers of experimenting with one-foot-spins and other zouk techniques in Kizomba
⭐️ JULINHA: from Cologne is ZoukCologne headteacher and mastermind behind the 101 How To series. Her love for dancing and teaching technically complex movements such as spins and counterbalances (sometimes for extended periods such as a whole 32 count musical phrase) is only surpassed by her desire to bring together the different dance communities.

Here we go with a completely new concept by Julinha ➡️
101 - HOW TO ZOUK TECHNIQUES
For Brazilian Zouk dancers AND dancers of other genres: Bachata, Kizomba, Salsa, WCS etc.
Over the past years of teaching many bootcamps I developed this idea:
