Creating during the pandemic has been crazyyy...but...I started discussions and research on another layer of racism, called colourism. I've set up a small solo piece and am looking for funding to get this dream fulfilled.

This course (Kizomba Teacher Training) was absolutely fantastic, you need to check Iris and her team. It was awesome.

It's the best Kizomba/Semba teaching course in the country. I feel like I understand what Kizomba and Semba is about now.
