Masterclass: Mechanics of Counterbalance ⚙️Counterbalance is one of the most challenging and underdeveloped mechanics in the Urban Kiz world.
We’re excited to host Jah J’a with his unique CountJahBalance methodology for an in-depth technical masterclass designed for intermediate+ dancers who want to truly understand what is happening behind this concept.
While counterbalance is widely explored in other partner dances, its integration into Urban Kiz and Kizomba Fusion is still in its early stages. To date, Jah J’a is the only artist who has developed a structured and transferable methodology to integrate these principles clearly into our framework.
You will explore 👇🏼
• The CountJahBalance concept across Urban Kiz, Tarraxo, Zouk and Bachata
• The difference between pivot and counterbalance
• How precise weight distribution creates both stability and freedom
• How to execute counterbalance safely, efficiently and musically
• Grounding and energy dynamics in partnered movement
If you enjoy deep technical knowledge and clear, detailed explanations, this masterclass is for you.
