Ivo Viera and Sara Lopez are both really respected names in the kizomba world, and in the wider dance world as well.

Being able to see how it’s done so close up is such a great experience.

Sara Lopez is a world-renowned dancer. She started dancing at a young age, starting ballet at 5 and eventually gaining an honours certificate from the Royal Ballet of London. While studying there, she added flamenco, contemporary, jazz, and funk to her repertoire. Later, she also excelled at belly dancing, salsa, and Latin. When she was 22, Sara moved to the USA and found kizomba, coming in second at the Africadancar contest in Madrid, 2010. Now, Sara travels the world giving workshops and performing, and she also uses the internet to show her talent and skills to the world.
