Kizomba Classes

Kizomba ClassesManuel Antonio Noronha2023-03-15T10:35:30+08:00

MCM College continues its quest to embrace internationalism (through town & gown connectivity) with a new interest group, by welcoming the Lusophone community through Kizomba: “one of the most popular genres of Angolan dance and music”. Kizomba is said to have taken its origins from semba, with a unique blend of Kilapanda and Angolan Merengue, and sung with a smooth romantic vibe in Portuguese. Mr. Silvino Pinho, chief choreographer and instructor, demonstrated to aspiring dancers that movement should be smooth and slow: ideally danced on linear pathways with influences of Argentine Tango steps, and rhythmically gyrating the hips in forwards, backwards and circular movements following syncopation as well as the usual ‘on tempo’ footwork.

Workshops take place every Sunday from 5-7pm at Fellows’ Salon until the end of the semester. It is a great way not only to unwind, but essentially, a fun and healthy opportunity for students to hone their dancing skills into practice.
