WeZouk Wellington present, Adam & Leona and their wonderful team have been growing the Zouk scene in Wellington since 2012. These guys are the heart and soul of Brazilian Zouk in Wellington & have created an inclusive & welcoming community in Wellington, NZ. ❣💃🕺
They have been amazing supporters of our events over the last few years, and we are thrilled to have them back again for BZF 2022! 💖
Adam began dancing the fun style of Cuban Salsa in 2007, then fell in love with and began dancing the passionate and flowing Brazilian Zouk in 2010. Also to compliment these styles he has a keen interest in dancing the beautiful Bachata and funky Samba de Gafieira. Adam has learnt from a diverse range of the world’s best Brazilian Zouk teachers, both in New Zealand and abroad. They include Kadu and Larissa, Allison and Audrey, William and Paloma, Lidio and Monique, Adilio, Alex and Daniela, Renata and Jorge and more. Adam is also involved in ethnic Polish folk dancing and is heavily involved in keeping this tradition alive. He has been teaching, trained, competed and performed in New Zealand and abroad since 2008 in all of the dance styles.
This wide diversity of dance styles has given Adam a very good understanding of the variety of particular body movements needed accentuate each style of dance. Adam has been teaching Brazilian Zouk, Salsa and Bachata as part of the Salsa Therapy team since 2012.
