You have never learned Kizomba or Semba before And wants to give it a go? If your answer is ‘yes’ to any of these, then this is for you. Semba (masemba in plural) is a traditional music genre and dance genre from Angola that became popular in the 50’s. It is the product of an evolution as it was influenced by different ethno linguistic groups from Angola as well as several different African rythms. In the context of dancing, the word Semba means “the body of the man that comes in contact with the body of the woman at the level of the belly button”. A dance with an important history from a very culturally rich African country. A dance that is passed from one generation to the next. The beauty of semba as a dance is its classic footwork, posture and connection.
