Step into something different.
Not just dance… but connection, control, and real movement.
This foundation term introduces you to authentic Angolan partner dance, where Kizomba is built from its roots in Semba — not shortcuts, not trends.
You will not just “learn moves.”
You will learn how to lead, follow, and truly dance.
🫵What You’ll Develop
- Strong fundamentals in Kizomba & Semba (the base most dancers skip)
- Timing, rhythm, and body control — so movement feels natural, not forced
- Leading & following skills that work with any partner
Connection & frame — the difference between guessing and understanding
- Real social dancing ability — not choreography, but flow
- Banga (attitude & presence) — how you feel and look when you dance
🤔Why This Matters
Most dancers get stuck because they chase patterns instead of building foundations.
👉This term is designed to
- Remove that “stuck” feeling early
- Build movement into your body (not just your head)
- Give you skills that transfer globally — socials, festivals, anywhere
🧑🏻‍🏫Class Structure
Progressive 8-week program (designed for real improvement)
Rotating partners (accelerates learning & adaptability)
Guided practice (so you don’t reinforce bad habits)
No partner needed.
👞What to Wear:
Comfortable clothing + shoes that allow smooth movement (not overly grippy).
💵Investment:
Casual: $20 per class
Full Term: $160 (8 weeks)
Limited Offers:
Foundation Package: $120 ($15/class)
Paired Pass: $80 per person ($10/class)
(1 Lead + 1 Follow)
