📍 About the Venue:
The iconic Verdi Club in San Francisco — a gorgeous Art Deco venue, is conveniently located right off the freeway in between San Francisco’s Mission District and Potrero Hill. Street parking is more available and safer than most neighborhoods in SF. That said, we still recommend that you keep your valuables with you.
📸 Please note that we occasionally take video and photos at our events.

💃🕺🏿 About the Artists:
Nelly Caldeira
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Nelly's journey into the world of Brazilian Zouk began in 2014, sparked by classes at Renata Peçanha’s school. Her passion quickly evolved, deeply influenced by mentors such as Paloma Alves & William Teixeira and Val Clemente & Vanessa Bonilha. Her transition to the U.S. in 2018 marked a significant turn in her career when she joined the Zouk Needs You team and became a dedicated instructor, boasting exemplary skills in both leading and following.
Nelly has collaborated with some of the world’s most prestigious zouk teams and projects including: MAC Project, Zouk Babes Bay Area (Director), Zouk Needs You, Boneca Baddies, Zouk SF, Kadu and Larissa Followers Team. Nelly firmly believes that dance can be a powerful medium for personal transformation. She advocates for a balanced approach to teaching, emphasizing both technique and the emotional, psychological aspects of dancing.
Charles Onyeama
Charles comes from a background of over 16 years of solo/partner dance experience, including classical ballet, jazz, contemporary, modern, salsa, bachata, kizomba, and Brazilian zouk/lambada. Having competed, performed, and created work alongside some of the biggest names across these disciplines, Charles is always focused on embodying the essence of each individual style, while using that language to bring something uniquely personal to whoever his dance touches. Charles aims to both inspire and unlock something profound through each encounter, whether it be performance, competition, choreography, instruction, or a shared moment on the dance floor.
For Charles, every opportunity in dance is an opportunity of creation, both external, and internal. He's been a member of the Bay Area Latin dance communities for over 15 years and is passionate about uniting our dance communities and sharing the essence of Brazilian Zouk!
