We’re excited to welcome our two District Zouk senior instructors back to DC for a mid-April mini-weekender. Alisson Sandi has been an integral part of our team for the last 5 years but is wrapping up his time in the US, so this will be a farewell celebration of sorts for him. Gui Prada has been away traveling and teaching internationally since December and is returning to us in April to be based in DC for the remainder of the year, so this will be a welcome back celebration for him. We’ll have:
- 11 hours of workshops
- 2 nights of socials, including Saturday night in the beautiful Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo
We’re looking forward to celebrating with our community, our beloved instructors, and our District Zouk team!
