Highlights
  • Langa - HOST EXAMPLE:
    The lead Zumba entrepreneur has a one-of-a-kind flare and personality that makes you come alive. On a water break, he will share his inspiring story of how dance and exercise got him out of a life as a gangster.


On the drive to Langa (if ‘Hotel Pickup add-on’ added), your guide will give you some key information about where you’re headed, who the community partners are, what you’ll experience, and general best practices to bear in mind.

Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by the community partners and your guide will help break the ice a bit before jumping into the African Zumba & Stories experience.

Try your hand (and foot) at some of the local styles: African Dance, Afro-Fusion, Kasi Jive, Pantsula, Kwela, Traditional Xhosa & Traditional Tswana.

The time together is always dynamic and responsive to guest preferences, but generally it’s evenly split 3 ways: (A) Zumba dancing, (B) Storytelling & advocacy, (C) Grace time & natural interaction.

Dance not your thing? Jam out on our djembe drums!

N.B. NOTE: Kids from a community-based after-school program will only be present if you book an option that includes the ‘Kids add-on’.

Additional Information

Dive into this unique experience led by a local innovator! Discover the inspiring realm beneath Cape Town’s tourist-oriented facade.

A Side by Side experience is an ideal, practical method to evade the conventional tourist circuit, live authentically, and make a difference. A portion of each reservation is returned directly to the innovators we are partnered with through end-of-year donations: tools, scholarships, and money grants.

An SbS guide will ensure a seamless experience hosted by the innovator, addressing attendees’ every requirement, right from pick-up to drop-off (if you choose the Hotel Pickup add-on). The guide will supply the necessary background information and handle the entrance fees for you.

You can also choose the Photoshoot add-on for HD photos/videos of you participating, which will be sent via Google Drive on the same day.

Learn, giggle, envision, connect, and transform as an individual after this unique encounter with truly inspiring locals.
