UZ Headmovements Bootcamp: Toalha Edition

One topic. 2.5 hours. Time to dive deep! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Toalha is everywhere right now, and for good reason! This beautiful, dynamic head movement creates endless possibilities for flow, expression and connection. But behind the seemingly effortless movement lies a lot of technique.

On Tuesday 25 August, Lisa & Marcos are dedicating a full 2.5-hour bootcamp to understanding, training and exploring Toalha.

And we don't just want to teach you a movement. We want to help you understand what makes it work.

During this bootcamp, we'll break Toalha down into its technical components and spend plenty of time on the foundations underneath it: weight transfers, circular head movements, tilted turns, body organisation, leading & following, and the control you need to execute the movement safely and comfortably.

We'll build up step by step and, most importantly, give you the tools to keep training it after the bootcamp. Because we believe good foundations will always be more important than fancy movements ๐Ÿงก

ZOUK & BACHATA DANCERS WELCOME!

This bootcamp is open to experienced Brazilian Zouk AND Bachata dancers.

Rather than teaching a full Zouk combination, we'll focus specifically on Toalha and the technical principles that make the movement work. That means you don't need to be a Brazilian Zouk dancer to join.

However, this is not a beginner bootcamp!

Toalha is a complex head movement and requires good control of your own movement. You should be confident in the foundations of either Brazilian Zouk or Bachata and already have experience with weight transfers, circular head movements and tilted turns.

Not sure whether your level is suitable? Feel free to contact us!

COME TO TRAIN, NOT JUST TO COLLECT ANOTHER MOVE

We don't expect anyone to completely master Toalha in one evening, and neither should you ๐Ÿ˜‰

Complex movements need repetition, exploration and time to settle into your body. Our goal is to help you understand where you are now, identify what you need to develop, and give you the technique and exercises to take your Toalha to the next level.

Come ready to learn, experiment, ask questions, practise and train together with us โค๏ธ
