The tradition
Kizomba is a social dance and music genre that originated in Angola during the late 1970s to early 1980s. Kizomba is a national heritage of Angola and means "party" in Kimbundu. Traditionally, kizomba was danced with family, friends, and acquaintances in social settings such as parties and weddings, but is nowadays also enjoyed at clubs as well as in other settings such as Kizomba Na Rua (Kizomba on the street) that are popular in Luanda.¶
