Learn Brazilian Zouk in NYC
Understand the movement, not just the pattern.
Training develops the principles underneath the dance: connection, body organization, timing, pathways, transitions and the ability to adapt in real social dancing. The objective is not only to reproduce a sequence, but to understand enough of its structure that it becomes reusable.
What you train
- Connection and partner communication
- Timing and rhythm
- Pattern combinations and transformations
- Body organization and movement quality
- Social-dance adaptability
- JnJ-oriented decision-making and clarity
Who the classes are for
Intermediate+ level
These weekly classes are for dancers with prior experience. Contact Gab if you are unsure whether the level fits you.
Intermediate dancers

Serious students & competitors

Your Brazilian Zouk teacher in New York
Train with an educator.
Gab Lacarriere began teaching Brazilian Zouk in France in 2017–2018 and now teaches in New York City. His background as a school teacher and his master's degree in pedagogy shape the way he explains movement, gives feedback and helps dancers practice.
Tuesday training is intermediate+. If you are new to Brazilian Zouk, tell Gab about your experience before joining. Private Zouk lessons in NYC offer individual attention to your starting point and goals.
Explore the dance
Build your practice beyond Tuesday.
