how to do Zouk step by step

Listen to music

Find out rhysm and beat, then feel by heart

a correct posture

I Hi, Its Kaz's how to start ZOUK I know you do not understand my English! so I write here what I was talking there. First Step of learning Zouk for me is ....... not to take it in steps!

I think listening to the music comes first, then find out the rhythm of the music. Then interpret it to the 'slow, quick quick' beat.

The next step is to feel the music to create your scene with your partner. In other words, make a business plan in few seconds!! Listening to Zouk music at home will help this. 

Lastly, invite your partner, or be invited by your leader, pause a second and connect to each other.  this is the most important part of zouk dancing though majority of dancers ignore this! 

The third step is to correct your posture.

Even if you learn many steps and difficult hand skills, it is UGLY to look at you. 

Then finally  you are ready to learn step. Please ignore my steps in the video for now!
