Brazilian Zouk is a partner dance which began in Brazil during the early 1990s. Brazilian Zouk evolved from the partner dance known as the Lambada. As the Lambada music genre went out of fashion, Lambada dancers turned to Caribbean Zouk (from the francophone, Caribbean Islands) as their music of choice. It was this transition that birthed the dance known as Brazilian Zouk. The term "Brazilian Zouk" was adopted in order to distinguish the dance style from the musical genre "Caribbean Zouk". Nowadays the term "Zouk" is commonly used to refer to the "Brazilian Zouk" dance style. The most characteristic feature of Brazilian Zouk is the follower's upper body movements which are led out of axis by intricate leading and following techniques. Other features include body isolations, tilted turns an

  • Brazilian Zouk is a partner dance which began in Brazil during the early 1990s. Brazilian Zouk evolved from the partner dance known as the Lambada. As the Lambada music genre went out of fashion, Lambada dancers turned to Caribbean Zouk (from the francophone, Caribbean Islands) as their music of choice. It was this transition that birthed the dance known as Brazilian Zouk. The term "Brazilian Zouk" was adopted in order to distinguish the dance style from the musical genre "Caribbean Zouk". Nowadays the term "Zouk" is commonly used to refer to the "Brazilian Zouk" dance style. The most characteristic feature of Brazilian Zouk is the follower's upper body movements which are led out of axis by intricate leading and following techniques. Other features include body isolations, tilted turns and more recently counter-balance techniques. Brazilian Zouk is a dance with well defined basic steps and rhythmic patterns. The representation of these steps and rhythmic patterns varies depending on the substyle of Zouk. The overall plasticity of the movements and the range of musical genres it is danced to, make Brazilian Zouk a partner dance that caters to creativity and improvisation. Over time, Zouk dancers have experimented and incorporated other styles of music into Zouk, such as R'n'B, pop, hip hop and contemporary (amongst others). (en)
  • Zouk-Lambada (ook wel Lambada-Zouk en Braziliaanse Zouk) is een verzameling van erg nauw gerelateerde dansstijlen ontstaan uit de Lambada dansstijl die vooral gedanst worden op Zouk-muziek of muziek met een Zouk-beat. De naam Braziliaanse Zouk onderscheidt de dans van de Caraïbische Zouk dansstijl, die geen enkele relatie heeft met Braziliaanse of Lambada-dansen. De twee belangrijkste stijlen binnen de Zouk-Lambada zijn de Porto Seguro stijl en de Rio stijl. De naam Lambazouk wordt vaak gebruik om naar een specifieke stijl te verwijzen, afhankelijk van de plek kan dat elk van de twee hoofdstijlen zijn. Lambazouk is echter een aparte (derde) stijl binnen de Zouk-Lambada. Zouk-Lambada behoort tot de populairste non-ballroom dansen voor koppels in Brazilië, zoals ook Forró, en Salsa. Zouk-Lambada is dynamisch, heel vloeiend en niet stationair. De muziek komt goed in de dans naar voren en bijzonder is dat behalve het ritme ook vooral de melodie wordt gebruikt om op te dansen, onder andere door de vloeiende continue/doorlopende bewegingen. Er wordt gedanst om een 'lang, kort, kort' ritme, hetgeen ook vaak in een voetbalstadion te horen is. (nl)
