We are very excited to have Dave Paris and Zoë Klein from Paradizo Dance perform in the dinner show.

Dave Paris and Zoë Klein are known worldwide as dedicated teachers and performers uniquely integrating partner acrobatics with many dance forms such Latin dance, aerial apparatus, and contemporary dance.   Their combined training includes handstands, gymnastics, ballet, modern, Afro-Cuban folkloric dance, Sports Acrobatics, Chinese Acrobatics, flying and static trapeze, aerial fabric, trampoline, projection acrobatics, partner balancing, ballroom lifts, and Bikram yoga. They continue to work with many coaches in NYC, Australia, Montreal and San Francisco.



Dave and Zoë formed Paradizo Dance in 2005 and self-produced a full evening show that May.  They are now performing for a variety of venues and audiences, having performed for Cirque Boom Circus Theater, Tribeca Film Festival, Cuba Libre nightclub in Atlantic City, Bindlestiff Family Cirkus, and the Spiegeltent, as well as private events, fundraisers, and conventional theaters.  They have performed at Salsa congresses and ballroom events worldwide in Canada, Amsterdam, Germany, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, India, Australia, and New Zealand. 



In 2008, Dave and Zoë won three "1st Place" titles in the cabaret divisions of Latin Hustle, Swing and the World Country Dance competitions.  Dave and Zoë tour regularly, returning to Brooklyn to offer their ongoing Lifts & Tricks Classes (through Piel Canela Salsa Dance School) and private lessons.  In September 2008 Dave and Zoë became partners in marriage as well as dance; they continue to train in their home studio many hours a day, striving to push the boundaries of acrobatic expression and the extremes of movement and physicality.
