Shortcut

Always wanted to dance but never have time? This six-week class on Saturday evenings will teach you all the basics of Kizomba.

What Is It?

Kizomba is finally in Kolkata! It is an Afro tango dance and music genre from Angola and it’s all about having a great time {the term literally translates into ‘party’}. Kizomba has become super popular across the world {you’ll see Latin dancers spinning around doing it!} and this is one of the few {if only!} classes in the city.

The Kizomba sessions will start this Saturday {October 21} and will happen every week for six weeks. The great news is you won’t even have to compromise on work or enjoying the weekend – the class is only for an hour from 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm.

Who Is It For?

If you’re up to picking up some rhythmic movements that’ll sweep your partner off the floor, this is the dance form for you. Beginner or pro, don’t stress. The class will cover Basic 1, Basic 2, Basic 3 {plus variations of each}; Men Syeda, Womens Syeda, Estrela, Virgula, Casamento, Cha Cha Step {and various combinations of these moves}.

You don’t need a partner nor do you need previous dance experience – it’s open for everyone!

Why Should I Go?

The Salsawala {aka Hitesh H. Teckchandani} will be conducting the class so you know you’re in good hands. A well-known face around the city, he also teaches salsa and bachata and you’ve probably seen him around Live in Lakes.

Anything Else?

You have to pay depending on the number of classes you want to attend. Just the first classis INR 500, the first three are INR 1,500 and all 6 classes are INR 2,500. Call 98301 72572 to register.
