Welcome to the first Zoukstravaganza of 2024! We are delighted to be bringing Ola and Oeslle (POL/BRA) and Will Tun (UK) for a day packed with workshops and socials. Join us for a magical journey into the world of Zouk and Lambada! With Ola and Oeslle as our guides, we will explore how Lambada has given rise to Brazilian Zouk, be inspired by the essence and flavour of lambada, and understand the meeting point of these beautiful dances.
With at least 4 hours of workshops with these superb teachers it is one not to miss, especially for those of you who have been attending our beginner courses and drop ins!

OLA AND OESLLE
Ola & Oeslle are Brazilian Zouk and Lambada teachers based in London/Warsaw. Dancing together since June 2022, they are here to share the love and passion for the dance, and have made great strides in bringing lambada (the precursor to Zouk) to London and abroad.
Ola is a dancer with over 18 years of experience. She is a certified Brazilian zouk instructor by the Methodology of Alex de Carvalho, one of the oldest Zouk methodology schools in the world. She is a member of the WARSAW ZOUK COMPANY, whose show was presented at the largest festivals in Europe. She has won multiple competitions in Jack and Jills across Europe.
Oeslle is originally from Brazil, where he has trained danca de salao (Forró, Bolero, Samba), Bachata, and Kizomba. In 2017, He joined the studio Barracão da Dança (Campinas, Sao Paulo) where he was trained by Daniel Darbello, Matheus Franco, and Nina Darbello. Oeslle loves performances and competitions. He has been part of 4 Brazilian Zouk performance teams and regularly competes in Jack and Jills.
WILL TUN
Will has been dancing Zouk and Lambada for quite a few years. He has learned extensively from teachers such as Gui Prada (Zouk), Ariel and Leticia (lambada) and Iago and Vanessa (lambada). He brings a warm and earnest energy to the dance, and is an absolute pleasure to dance with.

Alternatively come to our drop in classes at Klub Polonia on Tuesdays from 7pm to 9.30pm to broaden your experience. Otherwise it won't be the best experience for you!
