I was living my life without being alive... and then I discovered social dancing...

Sensual Dancing is all about connection. The gentle language of lead and follow which anyone should learn. The beautiful language where the variety of different accents and dialects makes it colorful and interesting.

Beatriz

teacher

Brazilian Zouk teacher at Sensual Motion.

Beatriz started dancing in 2009, where she joined the Ballroom & International Latin team at her university in the UK. She started competing that same year, and in 2010 specialised in International Latin – she trained and competed with the team until 2014. In 2011, after the competition season ended, she was getting itching feet so joined some friends who were going to a latin night. To her great surprise, a “latin night” didn’t mean a night where people danced International Latin – but rather a place where people socially danced Salsa, Bachata and even Rueda! After experiencing that, there was no going back: she was hooked and started regularly attending social events. In parallel, Beatriz discovered Forró, a Brazilian dance style, during dance festivals attended in Portugal.

  In 2016, Beatriz moved to Rio de Janeiro where she took her Forró to the next level, training with Eric Celestino and Marquinhos do Forró’s team. The following year, she moved to Malta: there, she rediscovered the pleasure of Salsa and Bachata in social dancing and learned Kizomba. She joined Baila Malta where she undertook training in Salsa LA Style, Cuban Style and Mambo, all the while teaching Forró workshops on the side. In 2018, Beatriz discovered Brazilian Zouk at Sensual Motion: she quickly became addicted to the connection and freedom of musicality that this style brought her. Since then, she has been attending training 3 times a week, focusing on the quality of connection and on the interchangeability between leading and following.
