    The comment about looking at her chest is not "cute". Please be more respectful of the women who already are allowing you to dance intimately with them. Your job is to create a safe place and feeling of trust so you both can move at your best ability.

      Yes, thank you. I thought the same thing. 🙏🏼
      Let’s create the dance community as a safe space for everyone to enjoy themselves without fear of extra attention in places without consent.

      I do not feel that way at all. It seemed to me that he was simply saying that's where he likes to have his attention for the sake of the dance. He seems to be lightly acknowledging the awkward way it could be taken as well - which I think you have to do in intimate dances like this, or people get weird about it. The person filming took it that way a lot more than the instructor meant it I feel. I think the male instructor handled it very well, and the comfort of his dance partner and female instructor with him speaks to that.

    Nice job but PLEASE CHANGE THE TITLE OF YOUR VIDEO.
    Your video is not using any original Zouk music, neither original Zouk dance style.
    So, please, if you want to remain accurate to your subscribers, make sure you use the accurate title and replace '' Zouk'' by '' Brazilian zouk'' as it is very different.
    First off, zouk music is absolutely not from Brazil. It was born in the 1970s in the French-speaking Caribbean island named Guadeloupe. It became a musical craze that swept around the world in the 1980s, thanks in large part to innovative bands like KASSAV' that played concerts internationally. Artists in several other countries were soon imitating and borrowing from the sounds of zouk.
    Zouk is also a Caribbean dance style that is, quite logically, danced to zouk music. It is not a performance dance but a purely social one.
    Zouk has also been used to label an entirely separate dance family that does come from Brazil, derived from their traditional dance of lambada but danced to original zouk music. Further confusion has arisen as new artists have been making all sorts of fusion with zouk, so dancers are often not dancing to true Caribbean zouk music at all, but R&B, hip-hop, electronica, and even acoustic contemporary.
    As this form has gained popularity internationally, huge numbers of people worldwide have come to associate this word “Zouk” solely with the Brazilian dancing.
    Thank you again for your understanding. :)

      While true the original has pretty much died by this point and brazilian zouk has become whats nowadays known as zouk across the globe. gotta deal with it.

      Oh honey, that fight was lost a long long time ago. Brazilian Zouk is the dominant Zouk now and given it moves well with the times it seems likely it's going to stay that way.
