We currently cover four major Latin and Afro-Latin dance styles:

• Salsa - The iconic Cuban-rooted dance with many styles (LA, NY, Cuban)
• Bachata - A romantic Dominican dance with sensual and modern variations
• Kizomba - A smooth, connection-focused dance from Angola
• Zouk - A flowing Brazilian dance known for its head movements

Salsa is typically faster, with energetic footwork, turns, and shines danced to syncopated rhythms. Bachata is slower and more sensual, featuring a distinctive hip motion and intimate connection with romantic guitar music. Many dancers learn and enjoy both styles.

Kizomba originated in Angola in the 1980s and has become popular worldwide. It's characterized by a close embrace, smooth walking movements, and deep connection between partners. The music features a distinctive slow, melodic beat. Learn more on our Kizomba page.

Brazilian Zouk evolved from Lambada and is known for its flowing movements, body waves, and signature head movements (cambré). It's danced to a variety of music genres and emphasizes connection and musicality. Explore events on our Zouk page.
