October Weekender with Leandro & Nayara

We’re bringing Leandro & Nayara back to DC for a full weekend of learning and social dancing! They’re known for their detailed ways of breaking down zouk technique and offering ways to improve your connection, musicality, and style. They’ll be joined by Iago & Vanessa, internationally renowned lambada and Brazilian zouk instructors who recently moved to DC.
We’ll have:
- 8.5 hours of multi-level workshops
- Two night socials
- Lots of learning and fun
We’re using a new venue for us for Friday and Sunday - a ballroom studio in Alexandria with beautiful wood floors. Saturday we’ll be at Glen Echo for afternoon workshops and an outdoor evening social in the Bumper Car Pavilion to enjoy some nice fall weather.
