Testimonials
https://www.kizouka.org/testimonialsAlejandro: I started my dance journey back in March. As a latin guy I was trying to learn in a short period of time what I was not interested in for the first forty years of my life. I started taking dancing lessons with several teachers but I was feeling frustrated because I was not able to remember anything they were teaching me at all.
I met Aurel last summer when he was teaching a kizomba workshop. I just sat down on a chair and was so impressed by his teaching skills that I stood up and joined the practice. I knew since that moment that he was the person that could help me improve my dancing skills so I got to talk to him and that’s how I started learning from him. I started attending his group classes and right after the first one, I wanted to take private ones, which I did first by myself and then I told a girl friend about him and she was down to become my dance partner for the remaining lessons. In fact, we signed up for another set of 10 private lessons.
His gifted attributes as a dance instructor are awesome. He focuses on the basics, on building muscle memory by repetition and breaking down steps that were complicated to do at first for me. I still need to improve a lot, that’s why I want Aurel to be the person I am learning from for as long as we can do it.
I highly recommend Kizouka Calgary to anyone who wants to start a dance journey and make it an enjoyable experience. Mexico City, DFJun P., "Great classes to learn the fundamental elements of Kizomba. Teaching style was highly effective for me. Broke patterns down into digestive parts that helped me learn. I highly suggest those you have taken a couple classes to attend the monthly specialty workshops. They were jam packed with details and elements expanded from in class. Always gained something with each class. Even if it was doing something I already learned with better quality in the move." Calgary, AB
Nerissa H-M., "An amazing teacher and has truly deepened my understanding of kizomba and also introduced me to the world of zouk dancing. He explains and demonstrates dance moves in a way that is understandable and meaningful. Also the teaching is deeply versed in the history and background of the dances, and offers many techniques and diversities within. I highly recommend private lessons!" Calgary, AB
Irena P., "If you would like to learn Kizomba fast I recommend to take private classes with KiZouKa. This is the best dance instructor I have ever worked with. He also introduce me to Brazilian Zouk which is absolute pleasure to dance. He knows endless variety of moves that makes it very entertaining. Also would be a great person to learn salsa from because his instructing skills are superb." Calgary, AB
Jack K., "I am back to my favorite group kizomba classes with Kizouka . I usually learn all my dancing through private lessons these days but These kizomba classes are like private lessons - very personal attentions, super patterns and lots of emphasis on the techniques!! Great dancers are attending these classes and makes sure that you get lots of dancing time as well not only instruction!!! And by rotating the partners you get to dance and get to know some amazing dancers. I simply love these kizomba classes!! Thank you for organizing them!!! I am so looking forward to compete in kizomba once they bring it to Calgary through Salsa Congress!!!" Calgary, AB
M. Mendes, "I’ve been attending Kizomba classes for four months now and I really & truly enjoy dancing away my Saturday afternoons and attending the socials. I consider myself a good dancer, but when I first started learning Kizomba it was really challenging! I enjoy salsa & bachata and grew up in a Caribbean home so music and dancing are just party of my world, but Kizomba is so unique. In my opinion, it’s really not something you can just pick up so these classes are really helpful! Kizouka is a great instructor and has an incredible ability to take something that appears complicated and break it down in to smaller, more manageable pieces. It took a couple of weeks for me to start feeling comfortable and now that I’ve got the basics, building on with more moves is just fun." Calgary, AB
