They have a vast dance background, not only in Brazilian Zouk. Both have won numerous Jack and Jill competitions (currently in Advanced division), including taking 1st and 2nd place in the Brazilian Zouk World Championships and are BZDC certified judges for Brazilian Zouk competitions.

This way we can also focus exactly on the needs of the group similar to private classes. Students in one group must all have similar levels, in order to keep the flow and progress and avoid that one is bored and the other one can’t follow. GROUP SIZE Ideally 4 couples, possibly 5, less might be possible with an extra fee. We will discuss on a case by case basis in case there is interest for a class of only 3 couples… HOW TO BUILD GROUPS There are 2 options: 1. If YOU want to get together friends of similar level, feel free and let Guido know, group leader will get an extra DISCOUNT! Guido will review requested day/time and the proposed participants regarding similar level… 2. Until the end of the weekend we will see which students are interested and available which days/times. Then we will decide the exact days and times and respective levels, and more people can join until we reach capacity. PROPOSED SCHEDULE 12:00 Improver (not enough registrations so far, might be cancelled) 14:30 Intermediate 17:00 Master Class But this is not carved in stone, just a proposal, let's see who signs up, which levels, for how many hours... We will help match dancers of similar levels... ________________ BIOGRAPHIES ========== Bruno and Fae started dancing together in Los Angeles in November 2015 and have since taught and performed at all major events all over the USA, as well as internationally. Throughout their career they have won numerous Jack and Jill competitions (currently in Advanced division), including taking 1st and 2nd place in the Brazilian Zouk World Championships, and got featured in the Hollywood production of the movie “Fences”. Fae has a rich dance background in classical ballet, modern, contemporary and commercial jazz, as well as hip hop and heels choreographies. She is also an All-Star west coast swing dancer. Bruno is trained in hip hop, salsa, kizomba and of course brazilian zouk. He has been on the social dance scene of his hometown Braga, Portugal since he was 14 years old. Together Bruno and Fae are one of the highest ranking Brazilian zouk couples in the US, expanding into the international scene - dancers, instructors, performers, choreographers and BZDC certified judges for Brazilian Zouk competitions. Bruno and Fae are also the directors of the Elevation Zouk Festival in Denver, CO and the Sunset Zouk Marathon in Orlando, FL, along with smaller events and classes in Central Florida. Having combined their knowledge and experience as dancers and teachers, Bruno and Fae have built a unique and memorable style, which they are always eager to share!
