Lisa van der Plaats

Looking to deepen your technique, unlock new confidence, or overcome a specific challenge in your dance journey? With over 11 years of dance experience in both Brazilian Zouk & Lambada and a background in Biomedical Engineering, I love to combine a highly analytical approach with creative, intuitive problem-solving to help you break through plateaus and build confidence.

Whether you're recovering from an injury, integrating Zouk into your Bachata, or just craving more clarity and control in your dance, I’m here to help you move smarter and dance with more ease. I teach in both roles (leader/follower), and welcome anyone ready to challenge themselves.

Private classes are generally available on Mondays and during Zouk festivals. Private classes with me are best suited for dancers with some experience who are looking for focused, in-depth guidance.
