Kizomba Dance Class Syllabus & Style:

Even though Salsa Latina had stopped regular classes in 2024, we are still offering the odd class on Saturday nights in 2025.
We have been pioneers in bringing many dance styles to Christchurch and had its first Kizomba Classes in 2009, it's quite possibly the first class in NZ of Kizomba.

Our classes focus on traditional Kizomba fundamentals while incorporating a blend of styles and flavors. These include Caribbean influences like French Zouk and Kompa, as well as Afro-inspired elements with Semba influences.

As we reinforce the core principles of Kizomba, we also explore exciting variations such as Tarraxinha, Kizomba Fusion, and Urban Kizomba (Urban Kiz). We embrace and teach the full spectrum of Kizomba’s rich diversity, showcasing how this beautiful dance style continues to evolve, much like other forms of dance.
