Kizomba Vibes - Free Lesson & Social

🎉 Mark your calendars and spread the word 📣 we're bringing Kizomba to Whyte Ave! Join us for an evening of positive vibes, meeting new people, and dancing the night away in true Kizomba style!

🇦🇴 What is Kizomba?

Kizomba evolved from Semba, a traditional form of dance and music that has its roots in Angola. After gaining independence from Portugal, Angola was plunged into a civil war in 1975, which lasted until 2002. During this tumultuous period, the release of new Semba music dwindled, leading Angolans to seek musical inspiration elsewhere such as the Caribbean and Cape Verde

As Kizomba music became more popular, Angolans began to merge the music with Semba steps, adapting to the slower rhythms of these new musical styles. This fusion gave birth to Kizomba dancing. Today, you may find people dancing Kizomba to other musical genres from Angola, the Caribbean and the Cabo Islands.
