SPECIAL EVENTS

Join us for this special 2-hour workshop from 7:00pm-9:00pm on Thursday May 4th. Find us in the Multipurpose Studio, at SOU Student Recreation Center.

Come and experience this beautiful partner dance originating in the early 80’s from Angola, Africa. Kizomba means party, characterized by a slower, romantic, more sensuous rhythm than the traditional Angolan semba music. Kizomba is a grounded dance with a marked beat, where one of the main factors is to control where you and your partner put your body weight. The most important thing to note is that this is “Kizomba” and not Zumba!
This class will start out with an introduction to the body movement, weight transitions and basic footwork. We will then move into the connection and partnering section of the class. This is where we practice the basics and breakdown the moves to feel more comfortable and confident in dancing out on the social dance floor. These core foundations will enhance your overall dance repertoire. This class is catered to beginners, but All Levels are welcome.
No partner is required but it is recommended, due to the nature of the dance, to come with a designated partner. This will help to feel more comfortable especially if you are new to the dance as the style is closely connected and known to be a sensual dance.
