It’s not surprising to see new dances grow in popularity. Â Indeed, many of the Latin dances we enjoy today such as salsa have roots in other dance traditions that were once more common. Â
Over the last few months I’ve noticed a lot of new Youtube videos showcasing a fairly recent dance called Kizomba. Â Credited by many as coming from Angola, the music and dance also has connections with Portugal as many of the songs are sung in Portuguese. Â When you see the videos here you’ll notice that some of the movements are similar to other Latin-style dances such as tango, samba, and merengue. Â
So far I haven’t seen this type of music hit the San Diego dance scene, but I would not be surprised if took hold here. Â For now we can watch the spread of this music and dance worlwide and await its debut in America’s Finest City.
