However, it was Brazilian Zouk that truly captured his heart, and he had the opportunity to learn from the Queen of Zouk, Renata Pecanha, one of the founders of this beautiful art form, at her school in Rio. For the past 5 years, Gabriel has been professionally teaching and sharing his love of dance with others. He currently resides and teaches in Iowa City, but travels throughout the Midwest to teach weekly classes in Milwaukee, Minneapolis, and Des Moines. In addition to teaching in these areas, Gabriel has also started teaching nationally, sharing his passion and knowledge of Brazilian Zouk from DC to Chicago to San Francisco, and everywhere in between. Aside from his love of dance, Gabriel is deeply committed to sharing his culture and heritage with his students. He is passionate about sharing the beauty and depth of Brazilian Zouk with others, and loves being able to bring a piece of his culture to his classes. Whether you are a seasoned dancer or just starting out, Gabriel's enthusiasm and expertise make him a wonderful teacher and mentor. 👗 Saturday Night Theme: Embrace the colorful and vivacious spirit of Rio with your dance attire – think vibrant, bold, and ready to move!
