Za 24 okt 2026: Kizomba: Roots to Fusion - Bootcamp Day + Social - Amsterdam in Amsterdam

? KIZOMBA: ROOTS TO FUSION
? Bootcamp Day — 24 October
? Haven, Amsterdam

Roots to Fusion is a one-day bootcamp taking you on a journey from the traditional roots of Kizomba to modern fusion styles.

Throughout the day, we’ll explore Kizomba, Semba, Urban Kiz and Tarraxo — how their foundations connect, how they differ, and how movements can be translated from one style to another by adapting technique, intention and connection.

? For newer AND experienced dancers

Whether you’re just starting out or have been dancing for years, there will be something to work on.

Everyone will practice both roles, giving you the chance to experience movement and connection from different perspectives. Newer dancers can build strong foundations, while more experienced dancers can refine technique, awareness, versatility and understanding of the different styles.

? WHAT TO EXPECT

Each workshop starts with a short introduction to the roots and history of the style, followed by practical exercises to explore its technique and connection to the other styles.

The workshops build on each other, with short recaps along the way. Afterwards, we’ll finish with a relaxed 3-hour practice social to dance, experiment and put everything into practice.
