Additional Private Classes
(ADDITIONAL CLASSES TO BE CONFIRMED)
Anderson & Brenda are happy to offer some additional private class during this 9 days ZoukDanceCamp. This is perfect for anyone wanting to strengthen any particular areas. There are very limited slots available, so make a swift decision and pre-book yours now!
We’ve decided for this particular event date to trial single individual sign-ups as a study group where there are rotations within the study group. Anyone who signed up with a fixed partner is not expected to rotate.
We highly recommend you find a dance partner to sign up with because based on past experience and our previous ZoukDanceCamps, those who signed up with partners showed incredible results of the biggest improvements. This is because they are able to practice with a body they are already familiar with and are comfortable giving each other sincere feedback. Another advantage is your fixed partner is someone who you are likely able to practice with after the ZoukDanceCamps for further development.

🗺️ 🔗Travel/Transport Guide
⭐️ Single individuals are expected to rotate.
⭐️ No rotations for fixed partners! There will be no changing of partners during classes! If you want to switch partners with someone in your group before each class starts, swap your partner and stay with them for the entire 1.0-1.5 hour class. We do encourage rotations during assisted and non-assisted practice hours.
⭐️ All participants are expected to understand and be comfortable with the pre-requisites because we'll be training using these movements!
⭐️ If you currently do not quite meet all the pre-requisites, then please learn & develop them prior to attending this ZoukDanceCamp! You should consult your local dance school & teacher for this, otherwise, chat with us and we'll see how we could help!
Class Topics
In Chapter 1 – Grounding; You will also learn Flow, Lead & Follow, and Building Your Dance, but we will focus on Grounding as the main topic. This means you will learn Grounding in full detail and train for 3 whole days. There will be enough time to practice and master Grounding and still learn how it works with the other topics. Each of the other topics will have one day dedicated to it. This allows you to gain a full overview of #BrendersonTechnique.
You will get the most benefit and enhanced knowledge if you attend all of the chapters. But having all 4 topics covered in each chapter lets you also choose the main topic you are more interested in. This means you can join Chapter 2 even if you didn’t attend Chapter 1.
