Tønsberg Kizomba Classes - Spring 2024
I absolutely love the Tønsberg community. I am back for another round of 2 levels, starting in spring.

As we say: The Urban Kiz Classes you did not even know you needed in your life.

Tarraxo Ladystyling Mini Workshop - 09/04/2024, Oslo
Apart from connection, Tarraxo really emphasizes individual expression to the music. Styling – or solo dancing, for that matter – serves exactly that purpose through expansion of repertoire, growth of self-confidence and the ability to improvise.
It is dedicated practice, and mastery of our body movements and isolations, as well as musicality that makes the ease and enjoyment we seek possible. The goal: effortlessly selecting movements that resonate with the rhythm and reflect our unique personality…
Urban Kiz Ladystyling Mini Workshop - 14/05/2024, Oslo
More styling and opportunity to train in your own role. Urban Kiz Ladystyling at the end of the second course round.
Urban Kiz & Tarraxo Musicality Bootcamp - 21/05/2024, Oslo
Musicality is what Val hopes becomes every dancer’s first love. When you are paying attention to the music and using it, you are not just moving your feet; you are syncing up perfectly with every beat, every pause, every little nuance. It’s like molding your body to the music like clay.
The sweet part: musicality isn’t just about hitting the right notes (although that’s important too); it’s about expressing yourself fully, letting the music guide your movements and emotions. And trust, when you’re dancing with that kind of soul, people can’t help but feel it too. Time to start learning how to make any song your playground.
Urban KizTrickology Bootcamp - 28/05/2024, Oslo
Tricks in Urban Kiz? They’re like the sprinkles on top of your dance moves – they add that extra wow factor that makes you stand out.
Think about it: with tricks, you’re not just dancing, you are bringing skills like body control, coordination, strength & flexibility, as well as storytelling to a different level. You are adding these cool, unexpected moves that keep everyone hooked, including your dance partner. And let’s be real, who doesn’t want to feel like they are dancing straight out of a music video?
But here’s the thing, friend: you have to learn them right. It’s not just about throwing yourself into crazy spins or lifts; it’s about doing it safely and with style. Here is your chance.
Round 3: Urban Kiz & Tarraxo Courses, June 2024 - Oslo
