Lambazouk / Porto Seguro Style

What is Lambazouk / Porto Seguro Style in Brazilian Zouk?

Lambazouk is a bridge term often used for the transition between Lambada-influenced dancing and the Brazilian Zouk styles that followed.

The word is useful when explaining the evolution from Lambada to Brazilian Zouk, especially because dancers and teachers do not always use the same historical labels. In practical terms, Lambazouk helps describe a period and style where Lambada roots and Zouk music culture overlap.
