Biography

Salka has been learning and dancing Zouk across Brazil and Europe, and has now settled in Berlin to teach and grow the community in Germany’s capital. Her unique and dynamic Zouk style is influenced by her background in Hip Hop and other urban dances. In her classes, Salka focuses on leading and following techniques that make the dance comfortable for both partners.

She loves discovering new structures and ideas and is a huge fan of reversing the directions of movements. Although she is more passionate about following, she also finds a lot of joy in leading, which helps her bring a balanced perspective to her classes. Salka is also the creator of the Instagram Project @zouk_moves in which she’s building a Brazilian Zouk Moves Glossary.

Dance Classes

Weekly Zouk Classes

Together with Charlie, I teach weekly Brazilian Zouk classes in Berlin — just a few minutes from Alexanderplatz (U Klosterstr.). These classes cover everything from the basics to advanced techniques: leading & following, body waves, isolations, and the flowing head movements that make Zouk so special.

You can join alone or with a partner. Changing partners during class helps improve connection and technique faster — while having fun and meeting new people. Everyone is welcome — from beginners to advanced dancers!

Solo Trainings

In addition to my regular Zouk classes, I offer special Solo Trainings in Berlin — each with a different focus and topic. These sessions are for all social dancers who want to work on their movement quality, coordination, body awareness and technique — without the need for a dance partner.

Solo Trainings focus on body isolations, head movements, footwork and musicality. The format is active and dynamic: expect lots of movement, clear exercises and little talking. Perfect to give your dancing new impulses and to improve control, balance and expression.

Zouk Outdoor Tuesdays - Open Level

Every Tuesday during the warmer months, I teach an open-level Zouk class outdoors in Berlin — right by the river Spree near Paul-Löbe-Haus. You’ll learn essential social Zouk figures and combinations you can dance right away, no partner needed.

After class, we continue with a relaxed assisted practice: two hours to review, explore and get feedback. I’ll be there to support you — whether you want to repeat moves, try something new or just dance with others.

Private Classes
