I have not come across Zouk in its purest form but as a varient in other dances most notably Lambada, where Zouk is used to slow things down and bellydance, which has many similarities.
Basically Zouk is very rhythymic form of dance. You do alot of slow body movement especially around hips and the trunk and your travelling movements are designed assist these body movements.
I am not surprised the person you have spoken about took to MJ very well. Zouk dancers are reputed to have alot of rhythm and anybody with rhythm can only be fun to dance with.
