Triad Zouk

04/23/2026

Zouk dance in May 2026! Zouk, originating from Brazil, is a fun, flowing, creative partner dance done to modern music. Come explore this fast-growing dance with our Beginner (or Refresher) Bootcamp Monday 5/4, and Class Series Mon 5/11, 5/18 at AFAS in downtown Winston-Salem, 6:30pm, and Tues 5/26 at East of Texas, 6:15pm. Pay $40 in advance for all 4 (a $55 value!)

Zouk fuses elements that you may know from other dances, like salsa patterns, body rolls, waves and tilts from sensual bachata, circular movement from cumbia, ochos and close embrace from tango, counterbalances from ballet, traveling from ballroom ... and its own unique head movement and "wifi" elements.
