ABOUT NINA & MATHEUS
NINA had her first contact with dance when she was 5 years old. Over the years, she studied Classical and Contemporary Ballet, Jazz, Stiletto, Hip-Hop and at age 13, she had contact with social dances. She specializes in Zouk, Stiletto and Lady Style, bringing a young and creative approach to her dance and teaching methodology. She is recognized for her musicality, autonomy and expressiveness that make her dance unique. Teacher, actress, performer and one of the directors of Barracão da Dança, she brings in her curriculum numerous achievements in competitions and festivals, national and international ones. Together with her partner Matheus Franco, they work with Zouk, Lambada and Forró as their main focus (in addition to having experience in other different styles of social dance and individual modalities), creatively bringing a loving and dynamic reading for each type of audience and student, always delivering a lot of expressiveness and technical quality in her performances.
MATHEUS spent his youth dedicated to the practice of sports, having discovered his real passion for dance at the age of 20. He started his practices with Classical and Contemporary Ballet, Hip-Hop and Jazz. In 2012 he had contact with Brazillian Zouk and other social dances. During the following years, he dedicated himself exclusively to improving his technique and artistic skills, continuing his studies in order to develop himself artistically. He currently works with his partner Nina Darbello with a main focus on Brazillian Zouk, Lambada and Forró, is the owner and director of Barracão da Dança, as well as performing jobs as an actor, choreographer and director of shows. His background focused on other dance modalities uniquely enriches his way of teaching Zouk and his personal mission is to bring to the greatest number of people the benefits that social dance and art as a whole can bring to the body and soul.
