I fell in love with lambada and Brazilian Zouk five years ago and have since been exploring its depths. As an advocate for understanding the roots of a dance, I made the pilgrimage to Rio De Janeiro to perform with Renata Pecanha’s company to complete a teacher training program, learned from Braz Dos Santos in his 50-hr teacher training in Key West, trained and toured with Mestre Gilson Damasco, and deeply immersed myself in the school Renata Pecanha USA directed by Cristi and Clinton. I won first place in the first ever lambada competition at New York City Zouk Festival and second place in the LA Zouk Festival Semipro US Zouk Open competition as the first female lead to ever compete. In 2018, I produced & hosted LA’s only  Lambada & Zouk social, ENERGIA. That same year I began collaborating with Jerry Lai to continue expanding his pedagogy, Deconstructing Zouk with the goal of creating versatile and connected dancers. To cultivate freedom of movement and safety in social dance for followers, I also created The Efficient Follow curriculum (find us on facebook). Together we went on tour to teach both programs in London, Washington DC, Warsaw, Paris, and are now teaching online! I recently became certified as a Judge for the Brazilian Zouk Council and scored my first intermediate competition in January. My goal is to use information from multiple modalities to create well-rounded and informed dancers who move from the inside out. I'm so excited to share with you!

My first class with Devon was amazing.  She is very patient and pleasant. I was impressed with her knowledge and is a great teacher.  I am looking forward to my next class.
