Semba is very much alive and popular in Angola today as it was long before that country's independence from the Portuguese colonial system on November 11, 1975. Various new Semba artists emerge each year in Angola, as they render homage to the veteran Semba masters, many of whom are still performing. Other styles related to the Semba are Kizomba, Rebita, as well as Kazukuta and Kabetula which are primarily Carnaval Music.
Steve & Maren are World Champions in Kizomba, Semba and African dance.
This class focuses on introducing Semba technique into your dance repertoire, so that you can better understand Kizomba origins and feel the original love.
