“Ryel' s Zenzouk classes are fun and really easy to follow. He has a unique ability to teach and explain how to move your body in a natural way, which allows your body to execute smooth, flowing movements with ease. Highly recommended :)”

Mary Fitzgibbons

“I love this class, which feels fundamental, like ballet, but with a different aesthetic and vocabulary. I often describe it to my friends as being like a "movement massage" we give ourselves every class, with steps and gestures that invite calm and expansive breath and gentle stretching. The combinations are challenging but not overwhelming (I hate feeling like I'm just trying to memorize a series of steps by rote) and follow patterns involving expansion/contraction, inhalation/exhalation, staccato/legato, that make one feel able to really tell a "story" through movement.”

“I think every dancer should take ZenZouk lines, regardless of their preferred style of dance! Ryel combines classical and contemporary movement with different elements of nature. He not only teaches you solid foundations but also gives you the space to make it entirely your own. With every Lines class I feel like I unlock more comfort and awareness with movement within myself. It’s really improved my creativity and expression in Zouk!”

“Ry'el makes it so easy to relax and learn. I love how he's able to mirror his patterns so that he can watch us, but still make it easy to follow along.”

“I really like the way Henry teaches his Lambada classes, as well as Jessica providing her feedback. Both provide critical techniques and useful tips when it comes to the body movement and steps needed in the dance and how those can be applied in partner work. In addition, the class is very detail oriented and structured, so it is easy to follow along. The way they teach online is very similar to their in-person classes at Stepping Out Studio. I would highly recommend taking with ZenZouk classes.”

“I really loved this class, it felt great to move and focus on my lines, I don't have a lot of experience with solo/contemporary dance. The class was run very smoothly and the teachers are experts.”
