Intermediate/Advanced or Master?

The master class is set above the advanced level and is therefore aimed specifically at teachers from the local Zouk communities as well as experienced dancers of a very high level. To ensure this, you can APPLY for the masterclass. If more people register than capacity allows, we have to make a selection. We are currently creating a questionnaire and will get back to the applicants.
Please also note that we will close registration for the masterclass a little earlier, probably at the end of October/mid-November.

If you are a teacher in your community, we probably know you. 😉
Otherwise, write to us briefly: [email protected].
If you are not a teacher, write to us too. A recommendation from your teachers would be ideal to help us make the selection.

It is assumed that complex turns and all head movements are mastered safely and that you can quickly grasp more complicated sequences. If you have already regularly attended advanced workshops at various events and festivals and they were more easy than challenging, then you have come to the right place.
If you are unsure, please write to us.
If you think, “Yes, Advanced could be too much for me,” then we ask you not to apply and we look forward to you taking part in our Intermediate/Advance workshops. 😉

Dinner on Friday and other social activities

We have to reserve seats in the restaurant. If you have registered for the opening dinner and we have also reserved a seat for you, please remember that the restaurant is prepared for a certain number of guests. It is therefore important that you stick to the information you provided when registering. Unfortunately, in the past it has happened that participants have registered for social activities but then did not show up. And that is not good for the restaurant in question.

If you no longer know exactly which social activity you registered for shortly before the Zouk Family Meeting, please contact us again by email: [email protected]. We will be happy to help you.
If you want to cancel your registration for a social activity, please let us know by email at least 2 weeks before the start. Thank you.
