******ARTIST DESCRIPTION******
Jade is a Brazilian Zouk teacher from London, currently working as a solo artist and collaborating with other artists to share her knowledge and dance across Europe. Jade has over 25 years dance experience in ballett jazz, hip hop, contemporary and Latin styles and it’s this versality that uniquely defines her dance and teaching style.
Jade is fiercely passionate about seeing progress in her students and has more than 14 years of practical experience teaching dance to adults and children. Jade began refining her Brazilian Zouk knowledge under the mentorship of Kadu & Larissa in 2018 and has completed their teacher training program and is a registered judge. Jade also participated in Alex de Carvalho’s MAC project in 2021.
Combining her vast experince as a Brazilian Zouk Leader, Follower and solo dancer brings a rare perspective to Jade’s methodology and in 2019, having built a strong reputation for high quality teaching and results, Jade established “Zoukglow London” offering weekly classes, courses and events. Jade is now recognised internationally and regularly teaches at festivals and intensives across Europe – most recently Helsinki Zouk Festival, Cologne Zouk Festival and Dutch International Zouk Congress to name a few. Her classes are known for being full of technical know-how, unique style and expression and plenty of good vibes!
Wilson Fonseca from São Paulo has been teaching and dancing in Europe since over 5 years now. He is known as one of the very best social dancers on the whole continent and he also has a vast knowledge as teacher not only in Brazilian Zouk dancing both roles as leader and follower but also Lamba Zouk and Samba de Gafieira. Wilson’s classes are full of details you need to learn if you would also like to be an amazing social dancer.
