• 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’.

Dive into this captivating experience presented by a local innovator! Discover the remarkable realm hiding beneath Cape Town’s touristic facade.

A Side by Side encounter offers an authentic, hands-on approach to escaping the typical tourist locations, allowing you to live like a native and make a difference. A portion of every booking is sent back to the innovators we collaborate with in the form of end-of-year generosity: apparatus, scholarships, and monetary grants.

Your guide will provide all the essential background information you should know and cover the entrance fees for you.

Optionally include the Photoshoot add-on for high-definition photos/videos of you participating, delivered via Google Drive on the same day.
