Woke up this morning feeling kinda dizzy. Man, I’m in love with my students. 😍 🔹#kuduroMondays: Monday’s kuduro class was ah-maze-zing. Lots of returning faces from the Summer Set program, which means they liked what they got. They worked HARD. They sweated at LOT. They sweated a little bit but they smiled and laughed! And […]

Eweee Mi Gente! Last Thursday, you already know, Manuel & Flavie taught at Baila Con Gusto. Lots of new faces, discovering #kizomba for the first or second time. That made me happy. You know what else made me happy? Seeing my team wearing their Gindungo shirts, and dancing the night away. Kizomba, Salsa… even Bachata. […]

Woke up on another day in another city. On Sunday I got bad news about my nephew: Junior was sick at the hospital. He is first born of the next generation, the first grandson of the family, our biggest baby . Knowing that, without thinking twice, your doctor jumped on the bus and made my […]

Yesterday was the last day of the Kizomba Canada Summer Set session. First session completed since I got back from #stuckinLisbon. Your boy had a long convo with the students about what they like/don’t like and how they feel when they go to other social to practice their kizomba. They told me 💯 what I […]

Mi Gente, you really liked my first show with the Kizomba Canada team since I got back from #stuckinlisbon. Name of the show = Fashion, and we looked good. 😎 Don’t worry, my people, the next show is gonna be even better! 🔥 I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: gotta give it […]

Slowly getting back into my routine from before #stuckinlisbon. Performances, costumes, training, last minute practices, tears, wanting to pee and shit at the same time before the show. Those are the anxieties of hard word, dedication and performance life. Last night I performed with my team for the first time our new routine that we’ve […]

Finally. The Dr kizomba website is 💯 complete. All the videos, for all the levels. All done. Shiny and in HD. Mi Gente, if you want to learn #kizomba, it’s easy. Start with the beginner package, move to the intermediate package, jump on the advanced package. Each level is 8 weeks of videos, that you […]

My kuduro gang yesterday did good, Mi Gente! They kept up with the choreo and I made them sweat . Mi Gente, if you don’t sweat when dancing kuduro, then you might be dancing, but you are 💯 not dancing kuduro. My students are starting to feel the music, it shows. 🎶They are learning that […]

Woke up today feeling confused. McNuggets, rum and coke beside my bed, Netflix still playing. Trying to put the puzzle together to figure out what the heck I did yesterday. Oh shit I remember, guess what? I was supposed to go out. Female friend gave me a phone call, asking what I was doing. I’m […]

Yesterday I went to Baila Con Gusto. An amazing night, as always 🎉. Gotta give it up to Dominique, JP and Montuno for keeping it up. To work, to own a studio, and still have one of the hottest nights in the city, week after week, year after year – for that I salute you.👊👍 […]

Yesterday was nice, spent some time with my skateboard, went to my skate park, didn’t see the time pass. When I stopped to look around, it was already dark. It’s a cool experience hanging out with people you don’t know, smoking, kicking, pushing coasting. Went home was a little bored, didn’t wanna work on no […]
