A: Nope. You get to choose your lead/follow preference. In fact, we encourage students to learn their non-primary role at some point in their dance journey. Denver Zouk School is committed to creating a safe space for gender-queer and non-binary people to dance freely.

Q: I am Zouk-curious but nervous to be close to someone I don’t know, will I be comfortable?
A: You will have the option to choose how close you want to dance. Consent and boundaries are woven into the curriculum.
