ZOUK in Rio

The music ZOUK has been around for a while. It is a style of rhythmic musicoriginating from the islands ofGuadalupe, Martinique, Haiti, St. Lucia and Dominica. Zouk means "party" or "festival" in the local creole of French. (this bit comes from Wikipedia where you can read all about it).

But what is amazing is when it is danced Brazilian style, called ZOUK-LAMBADA.
It is the most sensual thing you will have ever seen.
Go to club W in Ipanema, Rua Paul Redfern 37 on a Wednesday night, after 10pm, and be blown away.
HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
