Kizomba Dance Lesson AZ

Kizomba Social This Weekend at Dance FX Studios

Kizomba Dance Lesson in Mesa ArizonaIf you’re in the world of Latin dance and you haven’t heard of Kizomba yet, you’re a little behind the times. Like most Latin dances, Kizomba’s roots are straight from Africa – specifically Angola. It hasn’t been around for long, as it started showing up in the early 1980’s, but it has started growing in the United States over the past few years. If you haven’t seen this beautiful dance, come join ours this weekend for our Kizomba Social at Dance FX Studios in Mesa, AZ! Don’t know what to expect? Here’s a quick rundown of what our new Kizomba Socials look like:

Before you arrive, be prepared to get a little close and personal, as Kizomba is an incredibly sensual dance. Much like Argentine Tango, it is danced in a close hold with lots of body contact. Picture a sexy Argentine Tangowith a lot more hips… You’re on the right track to picturing Kizomba. I highly recommend you shower and brush your teeth as a courtesy to the other dancers at the social, just as you would going to any other dance event.

Before the main dancing gets started, we’ll kick off with a fun group class with the ever-talented Vicky Vazquez! As one of the only Kizomba instructors in Arizona, we’re lucky to have her at the helm of these socials. She’ll run you through the basics of the dance, as it actually has multiple basic steps, as well as music and body movement. So, even if you’ve only joined us for Country Two Step or Swing dance classes, you’ll still be able to give it your best shot. The lesson is also a great opportunity to get to know the other guests at the social so you know who you want to dance with later on!

After the lesson, the party will start! With music spanning from Kizomba and Zouk to a little Salsa and Bachata, there will be plenty of opportunity to get out on the floor. Because Kizomba is such a new dance to the United States, we’ll have all levels from beginner to advanced. Feel free to give it a go, or even enjoy the show! Either way, you’re guaranteed a great time.

So come on out this Saturday, August 23rd, 2014 and get your dance on! The lesson starts at 8 pm- only $10 for the lesson and the social. If you feel pretty confident in your Kizomba skills already, you can join in for just the social for $5. Dance FX Studios is located at 1859 West Guadalupe Rd. #105 in Mesa, Arizona, just off the 101 and the 60. Having trouble finding us? Just give us a call at 480-968-6177.
