You Want To Dance Kizomba.
But Something Always Holds You Back.
None of this is your fault. The problem isn't talent. It's that nobody gave you a clear, structured path — from the very first step to dancing with total confidence. Until now.
Hi — We're João & Vera 👋
We're professional Kizomba dancers and instructors based in Barcelos, Portugal. Husband and wife. Travel lovers. Parents to one son who prefers football — and we fully support that. 😄
We've been teaching Kizomba for over 20 years — in studios, at festivals, in workshops across Europe. In 2018 we launched Kizomba On Fire online and since then it has helped 5,000+ students in 40+ countries learn to dance with real confidence.
Our teaching philosophy is simple: clear, structured, step-by-step. No vague instructions. No "just feel the music." Real techniques that work — even if you've never danced a single step in your life.
"We've seen thousands of students go from total beginners to confident dancers. It works — if you show up."
— João & Vera
7 Complete Modules.
From Zero To Confident Dancer.
Every module builds on the previous. Every step taught clearly — for both leader and follower. Every lesson practisable in your living room.
History of Kizomba
Where Kizomba comes from, what it means culturally, and why understanding the music changes how you dance. Most courses skip this — we don't.
What Is Tarraxinha?
The difference between Kizomba and Tarraxinha — body movement, the wave, double time, and combinations. Most dancers confuse them. You won't.
Basic Steps Combinations
Game changerThis is where you stop "doing steps" and start actually dancing. Direction changes, transitions, flow. Four Kizomba variations and how to interpret the music as you move.
Intermediate Steps
Relógio, Start to Left/Right, Saídas, Syncopated Turn, Square, Stop & Turn, Dips and more. These are the moves that make people stop and watch you on the dance floor.
Advanced Steps & Combinations
Complex combinations, improvisation, and personal styling. How to create original choreographies and really interpret the music. This is where you develop YOUR dance identity.
4 Bonuses — Included Free 🎁
5,000+ Students.
40+ Countries. One Journey.
"Finally found a good and clear online Kizomba course. My dance partner and I gained more guidance on which points we must specifically work on. Your KOF online course is, in our opinion, the most suitable."
"My partner and I are truly enjoying the dance class videos. We signed up because my partner does not know how to dance — learning Kizomba will bring us closer together. It's been a great step!"
"Part of good instruction is also teaching what NOT to do — and you do this brilliantly. Well done."
"Very smooth and easy to take to the dancefloor. A great back-to-basics course after a long period away from dancing. Thanks for the lesson!"
"I've been learning the style for quite some time, and this course is helpful both for learning as a beginner and correcting a few (or more) kinks to my practice. Amazing course!"
"With the simple explanations from the teachers, I can well understand how to do the movements, even if I still need to practise. Great course!"

Frequently Asked Questions
❓ Do I need a dance partner to take this course?
No. Most lessons can be practised solo. Having a partner is helpful but never required — João teaches both leader and follower roles throughout the course.
❓ I've never danced before. Is this for me?
Absolutely. The course starts from zero — Module 1 assumes no prior experience. Thousands of complete beginners have gone through this course and learned to dance with confidence.
❓ I already know some Kizomba. Will I still get value?
Yes — many students join with existing knowledge and still discover huge improvements in their technique, connection and musicality. The structured approach often corrects habits people didn't know they had.
❓ How long do I have access?
Forever. One-time payment — lifetime access. All current content, plus any future updates João and Vera add. You can revisit any module, any lesson, anytime you want.
❓ How much time do I need per day?
10 to 15 minutes a day is enough. Consistency beats intensity. You don't need a studio, special equipment, or a large space. Your living room is perfect.
❓ What if I have questions during the course?
You can reach us anytime at info@kizombaonfire.com — we reply within 24 hours. You also get access to the private student community where João and Vera are present.
