"The Urban Kiz Classes You Didn't Know You Needed"

Technique. Style. Creativity. Confidence.

Lead & follow in small, exclusive classes that make you stand out on the dancefloor.

HAVE YOU HEARD OF URBAN KIZ?

The dance that looks so easy but requires a lot of technique and coordination and eventually gives you so much space to express your creativity?
Feeling tired of learning “choreos” and lacking the important details to make anyone follow you on the social floor or lacking the tricks to be a light and graceful follower that every lead wants to dance with?

Val will take care of your weekly dosage, help you get those details straight and level up!

    Valeriе, thank you so much for your classes and just you! I am glad that you were here in Russia that we met and danced a lot!) I am sure that there is the difference between a good dance and a good teacher. A good dancer doesn’t always mean a good teacher, but you are both! Thank you so much for your professionalism💃🏼 I will miss you so much, shiny and smiley girl😘hope to see you soon❤️

    positive review  I was immediately impressed with Val. She truly and uniquely stands out. It’s not just her teaching skills that only impress me, Val was a joy to work with because of her vast knowledge, her positive attitude and ability to make it easy and comfortable. It is my pleasure to strongly recommend Val for your one to one dancing lessons.

    positive review  Tanzlehrerin, die nicht nur einfach Figuren vorführt, sondern mit Herz und Seele dabei ist. Sie zieht bei ihren Shows und Workshops alle mit sich, so dass es eine Freude ist ihr zu zuschauen. Ihre freundliche Austrahlung macht es einem angenehm bei ihr zu lernen und sich auf die Figuren zu konzentrieren. Und als Fotograf kann ich dazu noch sagen, dass es einfach verdammt viel Spaß macht sie vor die Linse zu kriegen 🙂

  • positive review  I dance salsa/casino but I have been learning this new dance full speed for the last 6 weeks. On Val Classes I could finally understand the how and why of several movements on urban kizz. I strongly recommend to take some lessons with her, it can definitely be a game changer. Val Thanks for coming to Norway! We need more teachers like that here!

    positive review  I met Val at a Oslo social dance and I knew right away that she was the kind of teacher who would make me feel comfortable learning my first steps in dancing again after a 20 year break. She has such a lovely energy and her positivity and smile is contagious. This weekend I did a Urban Kiz intensive and Val managed to teach this Lady Styling in a step by step structured and easy to comprehend way. She isn’t just a great dancer, she is an amazing teacher with people knowledge. I’m looking forward to learning more with Val 💃

    positive review  She's an amazing danceteacher, love her dance style and techniques. What is the best about her classes i feel, is that she has the versatile ability to both lead and follow, so she teaches from both perspectives 💃🕺 She is also a really nice, fun and kind person 😊

    positive review  I’ve taken several classes with Val, both privates and workshops/group classes. I particularly like how she manages to strike the perfect balance between repetition and variation in her classes – you get enough time to learn the steps without it ever getting boring! In private classes, she has always been super attentive to me and my needs, listened carefully, analysed my movements, and given me very precise feedback that has helped me improve my dancing a lot.

  • positive review  Valerie, thanks a lot for the class! For all those still wondering whether to take one or not – just do it! In ~1.5h Val helped me to refine the basics of Kizomba, explained a lot of technical details and specifics of leading & following, answering all my questions and helping to pay more attention to the areas that should be improved. Really helpful and enjoyable at the same time!

WHAT IS “THE URBAN KIZ MAFIA”?

Of course we all have a faint idea of the actual history of professional crime.

Is “The Urban Kiz Mafia” meaning to produce arrogant and aggressive boasters approving of illegal activities? Absolutely not!

“The Urban Kiz Mafia” takes all the good that’s mentioned above and tells the world in a humorous way that we slay doing and sharing what we love.

It symbolises the collective determination to make our mark in the couple dance universe, supporting each other and fearlessly expressing ourselves through Urban Kiz.

Maybe one day it’ll become a rallying cry, who knows?!

It surely is a testament to our shared enthusiasm, and a reminder of the extraordinary bond you form through dance. And most importantly our essence, which is to convey a message of celebrating the values of (com)passion, unity & dedication that are at the heart of our art, encapsulated in kindness and respect while never taking ourselves too seriously.”
