From 14 students in the first class in Rotterdam to one of the biggest Kizomba schools in the Netherlands, powered by passion, technique and fun.
Kizomba Evolution was founded in February of 2015 in Rotterdam with one goal in mind: to help people find their passion for this dance and help them to become a better dancer while having fun.
In 2015 we started out in Rotterdam with 2 levels and 14 students. We quickly grew to become one of the biggest Kizomba dance schools in the Netherlands with over 100 students spread across 6 levels
In 2016 we also started teaching Kizomba Urban Kiz classes in multiple cities like Utrecht, Amsterdam, Breda and Nijmegen. These days we only teach in Nijmegen.
We are specialized in the Urban Kiz foundation. We teach our students the best way we think is necessary to dance Kizomba Urban Kiz. Our teachers have a high regard for good technique and fun during the classes. Our focus and priority is always on the basics and technique while having fun.
During the classes the teachers try to convey their passion and creativity for Kizomba Urban Kiz, the game of leading and following with an unmistakable connection between partners and the playfulness with the music to their students.
Kizomba Evolution has its own style which is described as creative, innovative, dynamic and fun.
Over the years, Kizomba has had a huge transformation, resulting in the development of a whole new genre called Urban Kiz. Not only the dance style but also the dancers, teachers and the music have contributed to this evolution. Many dancers and teachers have developed their own unique style and way of dancing and teaching. All these changes and transformations have contributed to the emergence of this new dance style, and therefore the name Kizomba Evolution.
Because evolution is a part of life and dance is a way of life, teachers at Kizomba Evolution constantly improve their techniques, skills and style to keep moving forward. And because our teachers know the best way to becoming a much better dancer starts at the bottom, teaching their students the right way of dancing in the beginning will make sure they have much more fun dancing when they reach a higher level or when dancing with a much better dance partner.
In 2015 Donnovan of Kizomba Evolution also started organising events. Today Donnovan has created the concepts for 2 of the most popular Kizomba social dance parties in the Netherlands.
Organised every Tuesday in Rotterdam — also the first free Kizomba social dance event with DJs in the Netherlands. Formally known as Kizomba Evolution Dance Night, these days also known as Afterworkz.

In 2015 Kizomba Evolution also started organising bigger weekend events, because we found the quality of other events were not to our standards. We knew we could do it better, and so we started organising ourselves, where the focus of the events was always on the dancers.
