HAPPY STUDENTS
WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ?
Evolution of Brazilian Zouk is inevitable, but in order to evolve there needs to be a baseline. To have Renata's methodology brought to the US not only focuses on the roots, but empowers us to further explore. Clinton has provided me with these, and am very grateful as it has opened up other opportunities to be a better dancer and person.
