🎉 Happy New Year, Toalhalars! 🎉We hope you’re having a wonderful New Year and a great start to the year ahead ✨ When you have some time, please visit the course platform — you’ll find the “Bachazouk Basics” 9 videos there. As many of you may already feel, learning Toalha is actually the culmination of many advanced techniques built on strong basic foundations.At this stage, I believe many of those basic techniques now make much more sense to you (Grips, Frame, circular etc). In Brazilian Zouk, dancers usually do not learn Toalha as their first movement.However, both Polina and I learned Toalha before we truly knew Zouk, and then we went back and learned the basics retroactively. Why? Because passion comes first.Passion creates consistency, and consistency naturally leads to the need for strong basics. The learning curve is not always linear.People often say “basics first, then advanced,” but sometimes focusing only on basics without reaching what you truly want to learn can feel discouraging — and in the end, people give up. This course took a slightly drastic and unconventional approach, but we hope it helped you become genuinely interested in the so-called “boring” basics of Brazilian Zouk.At this point, we believe you’ll no longer find these techniques boring at all 💙 Wishing you an inspiring and passionate year ahead — keep learning and keep shining ✨
