Kizomba Dance Class – Friday Nights!
Series # 3: August 21st-Sept. 25th, 2026

Step onto the dance floor and experience the sensual, smooth, and deeply connected world of Kizomba. Whether you’re brand new or already in your flow, our Friday night series is designed to help you build confidence, connection, and beautiful movement step by step.

What is Kizomba?
Kizomba originated in Angola in the late 1970s and early 1980s, evolving from the traditional dance Semba and influenced by Caribbean rhythms such as Zouk. Over time, Kizomba grew into a globally loved partner dance known for its close connection, grounded steps, smooth body movement, and slow rhythmic flow.
Today, it is one of the most popular social dances around the world—valued for its musicality, emotional expression, and the way it brings people together through movement.

In This Series You’ll Learn:
-Basic steps, timing, and foundational movement
-How to lead & follow with clarity and comfort
-Connection techniques for smooth, effortless partnership
-Styling, body movement, and flow for musical dancing
-Social dance etiquette + confidence on the dance floor

Class Format:
Beginners | 6 PM
Perfect for first-timers and newer dancers learning fundamentals, rhythm, and connection.
Intermediate | 7 PM
For dancers who already know basics and want to advance technique, musicality, and partner flow.
No partner required — come solo or bring a friend!

Why You’ll Love This Series
Kizomba isn’t just a dance — it’s a feeling. The music wraps around you, the connection guides you, and every week you’ll gain more balance, confidence, and joy in your movement. This class is welcoming, beginner-friendly, and perfect for anyone looking to learn a beautiful style of partner dance.
