Very good article about the benefits of improving basic even for experienced Zouk dancers:
They are also basic in the sense that they are fundamental. This means that they are the foundation on which the whole of your dance rests. If your basics are good, it makes the whole of your dance look and feel better, no matter how many advanced movements you do. If your basics suck, your dance will also suck no matter how many fancy new combinations you learn.
So, participate beginners classes and polish your basic to build complicated moves on the good foundation!
