Un, dos, tres... MATA

I love living in London, there are so many opportunities here to explore cultures and discover new activities. I personally try to do everyting, from Goth to Bollywood nights, from Improv comedy to Beach volley (yes you can beach volley in London). If you are new to London, I recommend joining Sportas, Rueda Libre, Hoopla, and checking dance studios like Base or Danceworks.

My favourite activity is dancing, including azonto, samba, afroheels, capoeira, kizomba, afro-bollywood, salsa, rueda, bhangra, modern Jazz, and amapiano. London is one of the best places to dance, and dancing is one of the best ways to explore cultures. My favourite ones are afrohouse and kuduro, both from Angola and Portugal. Many people have heard of kuduro through the song “Danza kuduro”, but that has little to do with genuine kuduro, which looks like this. You can read about the very interesting history of kuduro here. To see what afrohouse looks like, check Septzilla, who founded the Afrohouselab, or Will who creates amazing fusions with other styles.
