Dance Studio is on your right. ===ABOUT HONOLULU ZOUK=== Kimberly Loo founded Honolulu Zouk in 2015 as a vehicle for creating a dance family around teaching, performing, and choreographing Brazilian Zouk fused with other dances. Her dance philosophy is based around a desire for each dancer to celebrate awareness of their bodies, and to find joy in connecting with themselves, accepting their sensuality and ability to express themselves through movement. The Honolulu Zouk logo emphasizes how 'ono (delicious) zouk is, and how its dancers love to zouk always and all ways. Kimberly's teaching style is influenced by her ballet background and accepting of nonheteronormative dance roles. In its first year, Honolulu Zouk was invited to perform for "zouk royalty" at Zouk Night Love in Mexico and received a standing ovation! They have been gracing the Hawaiian Islands and the mainland US with dance instruction and dazzling performances every since! Honolulu Zouk is comprised of several performance teams, a weekly zouk fusion social, ongoing technique classes, and frequent visiting instructors. Please contact [email protected] and come join the family or if you're interested in a performance! ===ABOUT KIMBERLY LOO=== Kimberly Loo began dance training at age 4 just couldn't stop. Dance was one of her three majors at university, alongside English and Anthropology; her Bachelor's degree in Dance with a Performance and Choreography emphasis from Pomona College in California alongside a 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification from Mahatma Yoga in India. Kimberly's formal training encompasses ballet, jazz, modern, international ballroom, salsa, bachata, and her favorite, Brazilian Zouk. Kimberly has twice won collegiate championships in International Ballroom (both Latin and Standard), the Hawaii Salsa Championship, won runner up at the Texas Salsa Open, placed in several BZDC Strictly Zouk and Zouk Jack & Jills, and has been invited to perform and teach throughout the Aloha state and in California, Texas, Mexico, Morocco, and India. Her dance career as a performer has spanned from the commercial to the burlesque. Kimberly actively pursues spreading the warm fuzzy feelings of dance to every audience and every social dance partner she encounters, and founded Honolulu Zouk to create a dance family around this love. ===UPCOMING HNL ZOUK EVENTS=== HONOLULU ZOUK SUNDAY Polearity Studio The longest running zouk social around!
