Wouldn’t it be great if there was a quick and easy way to learn how to dance? ​ Join us at Social Dance Academy Belfast where you can learn Kizomba, a beautiful dance that originated in Angola, with both the dance and music having their origins in Semba and Angolan Merengue. ​ The word “Kizomba” is derived from the Angolan word for ‘party’ or ‘celebration’, and the dance is known for its smooth, earthy dynamic and traditionally close partnership hold. ​ There are only a handful of steps that are simple to learn, and the steps are danced on every beat with a continuous movement or flow. ​ Kizomba’s magic, and the reason for its world-wide popularity, lies in its relationship to the music, and the finely tuned lead-follow connection, which gives it that smooth, flowing movement and feeling. ​ There are some guidelines concerning the step patterns, but the musicality takes precedence, with the dance itself composing of these handful of steps danced in different ways and combinations, making it smooth yet dynamic. ​ Dancers listen and interpret the music through their movements, and at the Academy, we teach you the steps of kizomba, built around African folk rhythms, and help you find that connection to the music, allowing you to learn musicality and more. ​ You will also learn different styles of the dance which originated from Kizomba, such as Urban Kiz or Kizomba Fusion, which evolved as way to dance kizomba to a wide variety of musical influences. ​ Kizomba is a great dance style to learn, and it is danced at most Afro-Latin socials, congresses and festivals around the world. ​ We've helped hundreds of people learn how to dance, and we were featured in Belfast Live, BBC iPlayer and voted the top ThreeBestRated Afro-Latin dance school in the country. ​ Anyone can learn how to dance. ​ No partner, no worries. Most people come on their own and the great thing about partner dancing is that you make friends very quickly. ​ So join us at Social Dance Academy Belfast, to experience the beauty of Kizomba. ​ ✅ No Partner Required ✅ Friendly, Supportive Environment ✅ Great Community ✅ Improve Health and Wellbeing ✅ Enjoy Dance Socials ✅ Classes are For Beginners and Improvers ​ 19:00 - 20:00 Beginners Bachata Class 20:00 - 21:00 Improvers Bachata Class ​ ❇️ Price: £10 per class £15 for both on same day ❇️ Membership: See info on how to become a member: https://socialdanceacademybelfast.com/sdab-membership/ ​ ❇️ "Introductory Offer" (Any 5 Classes Only £25): http://socialdanceacademybelfast.com/sign-up-introductory-offer-x5-dance-classes/ Feel Free to Get in Touch, Phil Hunter +447532759910 (WhatsApp or Text) socialdanceacademybelfast@gmail.com (Email) - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/belfast/dance-classes-belfast-kizomba-and-sensual-bachata/200029743539221 - **Event Categories**: workshops, festivals, health-wellness, parties, live-music, entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 1 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: http://facebook.com/200029743539221?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=belfast-events ## Event venue details - **city**: Belfast - **state**: NI - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Social Dance Academy Belfast - **lat**: 54.59525 - **long**: -5.89972 - **full address**: Social Dance Academy Belfast, 32 Chatsworth Street, Belfast, BT5 4QQ, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 2 - **organizer**: Social Dance Academy Belfast (https://allevents.in/org/social-dance-academy-belfast/18696515) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/a580be60e79db60476ccb9ea7c6dabce456980269cc55a672f2374728dba673d-rimg-w1200-h675-dc067bbd-gmir?v=1772224521 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/3ad5acfd53c25d0df78f9f304d0a1a1c2f676a22c70c14925fc83c85b6b33751-rimg-w300-h300-dc067cbe-gmir?v=1772224521 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Fri, 06 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Social Dance Academy Belfast, 32 Chatsworth Street, Belfast, BT5 4QQ, United Kingdom - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Social Dance Academy Belfast - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** workshops, festivals, health-wellness, parties, live-music, entertainment - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Dance Classes Belfast: Kizomba & Sensual Bachata ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Dance Classes Belfast: Kizomba & Sensual Bachata", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/a580be60e79db60476ccb9ea7c6dabce456980269cc55a672f2374728dba673d-rimg-w1200-h675-dc067bbd-gmir?v=1772224521", "startDate": "2026-03-06", "endDate": "2026-03-06", "url": "https://allevents.in/belfast/dance-classes-belfast-kizomba-and-sensual-bachata/200029743539221", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Social Dance Academy Belfast", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "32 Chatsworth Street, Belfast, BT5 4QQ, United Kingdom", "addressLocality": "Belfast", "addressRegion": "NI", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "54.59525", "longitude": "-5.89972" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "?

They love it!\r\rPhil started dancing by learning Salsa and he got addicted to dance, moving on to bachata and kizomba, as well as other styles such as zouk. He was obsessed with perfecting the art of movement, with a sharp technical mind and a great enthusiasm for helping others around him grow as dancers.\r\rInitially, Phil started as a student on the dance scene, and got into teaching when other students asked for lessons. His passion for dance is infectious and you can clearly see that in his classes.\r\rMeredith is originally from Seattle and has more than a decade of experience on the high calibre dance scene in the big city. She started training in Ballet and you can see this, with the style, grace and elegance she brings to her dancing. Her ladies styling is well sought after and something the Belfast dance scene is craving.\r\rThey hope to see you join the classes and they want to help grow the dance scene in Belfast, and bring in some fresh dancers, so that everyone can experience, benefit and enjoy themselves through the gift of dance." } ] } ] ```
