About

Kizomba Alegría Dance Company is an adult dance school in Charlotte, North Carolina dedicated to promoting Kizomba/Semba social dance culture through weekly group classes, private dance lessons, and monthly dance parties.

Check out the listing of all upcoming events, as well as videos and pictures from classes and dance parties on our social media: Facebook-@KizombaAlegria or Instagram-@Kizomba_Alegria

Contrary to what you may have seen or heard, Kizomba is NOT a grinding, sexual, "sexy" or even "sensual" dance, except to the extent that it feels GREAT when danced properly! In fact, in Angola, where Kizomba and its parent Semba are from, Kizomba is a family friendly dance.

If you want to see what Kizomba looks like without all the extra non-Kizomba stuff people sometimes add to the dance, join the class and see for yourself!

Instructor biography:

Veronika Robinson, originally from Belarus, discovered the world of dancing in 2011 when she decided to take her first salsa class in Charlotte, NC. Her love of dancing and exploring different cultures brought her to discover Kizomba in summer of 2014. After her first Kizomba workshop with Kizomba RDU, she went on to receive more training attending different Kizomba festivals around the US, including Washington DC, Miami, Las Vegas, Houston, etc. Her dance style has been influenced by different Kizomba instructors including training with Oscar BA, David Campos and Guida Rei, Eddy Vents and Lucia Noguiera, and Brinca (TBoy and Ashby). She has completed over 40 hours of intensive kizomba instructor training with Lucia Noguera (Portugal).

Since March of 2015, Veronika has been co-teaching weekly classes locally in Charlotte, as well doing workshops at local Charlotte and Atlanta kizomba dance festivals in "Kizomba Charlotte", one of the first kizomba schools in the area. July of 2017, Veronika went on to establish “Kizomba Alegria Dance Company” where she teaches weekly classes and does bi-weekly dance social events to promote kizomba dance culture in Charlotte and surrounding areas.

Veronika is also the co-founder and organizer of “Kizomba Open Air” initiative – free outdoor kizomba dance events in Charlotte. She got the idea after she visited Minsk, Belarus and saw local kizomba community of dancers there dancing outside in local parks and plazas.

Currently, Veronika and “Kizomba Alegria Dance Company” are committed to promoting Angolan style of kizomba dancing in hopes to preserve and educate more people about the beautiful culture and African roots of Kizomba/Semba dancing.
