"What is enough for a meaningful dance experience?"
"How much someone knows in terms of movements, doesn't make them a great social dancer."
This intensive contains roughly twice the content of a typical zouk weekender and is more specialized and cohesive than training offered at a large congress or festival.
MOSD is an immersive Brazilian Zouk training experience designed to develop the essential Traits of a great social dancer. It brings forth a training system developed around the principles of collaboration and horizontal learning, aiming to study technique as a tool to improve connection and social dancing skills. It’s a comprehensive system for understanding the deeper magic of partner dancing: how you perceive it, how it feels, how it resonates, and how it can evolve.
Inspired by the spirit of RPG adventures, MOSD offers dancers a structured yet playful approach to social dance training, providing ways to track progress, identify areas for improvement, and discover their areas of excellence.
During MOSD, the training is simultaneously individual and collective. You and your fellow dancers are not just students; you are explorers, party members, and co-creators, remaining together for the entire training. Your strengths, curiosities, and goals shape the practice, with Traits, Foundations, Movements, Skills, and Titles guiding your development.
The training includes access to the MOSD Chapter 1 PDF document, with graphically annotated text - 63 pages!!!
