Cabecada / Head Movement

What is Cabecada / Head Movement in Brazilian Zouk?

Cabecada is a family of Brazilian Zouk head movement techniques that must be led, followed, and trained with safety and control.

Head movement is one of the most recognizable visual elements in Brazilian Zouk, but it depends on posture, preparation, axis, connection, and consent. On a social floor, safe technique matters more than dramatic range.
