[He nods, definitely not nervous. He's just closing his eyes to better imagine the last time he was in a proper ballroom situation. To get the music in his head!!! That's all!!!
But the reason why van Zieks goes quiet all the time is so he can think things over carefully and then do them properly. So when he finally does move, you really wouldn't think he was nervous at all. His steps are smooth and purposeful, his lead is steady and firm, just enough pressure in his hold to guide his partner from one step to the next.
It may not be exciting or spicy, but it's certainly elegant.]
