We are ecstatic to be bringing in Nina and Matheus for a weekend of dancing and teaching! Their dance and teaching philosophy is a reflection of their mastery of the zouk fundamentals, an intense desire to make them accessible to every person, and a playfulness that allows everyone to express their individuality. As part of Geração São Paulo, they are changing the way the Brazilian Zouk is danced all around the world, and we get to have them right here in East Lansing!
In case you are unfamiliar with their dancing!


Note: To maximize the use of the space and the instruction, this event will be capped at 40 people!

🚗Getting here
For those flying, Detroit, Lansing, and Grand Rapids are all options. Public transit options from Detroit and Grand Rapids are below, and we will help organize rideshares or carpooling based on the sign up survey. For those driving in, we will also do our best to help – some of this is already in the sign up survey. If you are flying in, flying into Detroit and taking the Michigan Flyer to East Lansing is likely the most convenient because of scheduling, and the Flyer drops you off minutes from the venue.

Greyhound buses between Grand Rapids and East Lansing (note that all buses are between 12 PM and 4 PM both ways and will need a taxi/uber from airport to bus station):

Michigan Flyer buses between Detroit Airport and East Lansing (note that last return bus from East Lansing to Detroit is at 5:30 PM if/when booking): https://www.michiganflyer.com/#

Refund/Transfer Policy
Tickets are non-refundable but can be transferred to another person, or the value can be applied to a future event if requested by the ticket holder up to two weeks before the event (midnight of August 24). After that, requests will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, including COVID cases.
