The Kizomba Movement is finally making an impact in Southern California. Over the past year instructors from all over the world have visited LA. Now we have socials like Get LAI’d, & Bachata y Mas playing Kizomba during there events. Even Steven’s Steakhouse is getting in on the action. Is it a fad? Heck NO! Kizomba is here to stay. Where can you learn? You can come hang out with the LAI and take an intro class or if you want a more intense experience you can check out the many workshops that run through California like the one below.

Kizomba Intensive w/ International Guests:

The French Kizomba love was going to travel from France all the way to San Francisco to spread the addicting Kizomba drug, and then to return back to France. But, there was no way they were going to avoid SoCal. So, Yami and St’Effy are also coming to LA to share their Kizomba passion with us!

Yami and St’Effy are from Paris, and were finalists in this year’s AfricAdançar World Kizomba Competition.
