*** STARTING TONIGHT *** *** FIRST PRACTICE - International Brazilian Zouk Flash Mob Ottawa/Gatineau _ Once again for 6 years in a row, OTTAWA-GATINEAU has joined the International Zouk Flash Mob (IZFM) which will take place on SEPTEMBER 16, 2017!... _ WHAT'S BRAZILIAN ZOUK? Brazilian Zouk or Lambada-Zouk started in Brazil as a fresh new approach to the old Lambada dance of the 80s. The dance is unique in both its sexy hip movements and the girl’s flowy intricate head movements. This sensual dance is known for its fluidity and continuity of motion. The bodies of both dancers are in close-contact and seem to combine and move in perfect harmony. _ WHY A FLASHMOB? On September 16, 2017, more than 200 cities around the world will dance Brazilian Zouk. This event has been created to raise awareness about this beautiful dance. Luc Poulin with some of his accomplices is leading the Ottawa-Gatineau group. Last year and the years before, we were about twenty dancers on Parliament Hill.
