Day 81 | Student Energy on High

Woke up this morning feeling kinda dizzy. Man, I’m in love with my students. 😍 🔹#kuduroMondays: Monday’s kuduro class was ah-maze-zing. Lots of returning faces from the Summer Set program, which means they liked what they got. They worked HARD. They sweated at LOT. They sweated a little bit but they smiled and laughed! And […]

Day 73 | Hard Work

Eweee Mi Gente! Last Thursday, you already know, Manuel & Flavie taught at Baila Con Gusto. Lots of new faces, discovering #kizomba for the first or second time. That made me happy. You know what else made me happy? Seeing my team wearing their Gindungo shirts, and dancing the night away. Kizomba, Salsa… even Bachata. […]

Day 67 | Feeling Pumped

Yesterday was the last day of the Kizomba Canada Summer Set session. First session completed since I got back from #stuckinLisbon. Your boy had a long convo with the students about what they like/don’t like and how they feel when they go to other social to practice their kizomba. They told me 💯 what I […]

Day 49 | Audience Chemistry

Slowly getting back into my routine from before #stuckinlisbon. Performances, costumes, training, last minute practices, tears, wanting to pee and shit at the same time before the show. Those are the anxieties of hard word, dedication and performance life. Last night I performed with my team for the first time our new routine that we’ve […]

Day 43 | The Art of Social Dancing

My kuduro gang yesterday did good, Mi Gente! They kept up with the choreo and I made them sweat . Mi Gente, if you don’t sweat when dancing kuduro, then you might be dancing, but you are 💯 not dancing kuduro. My students are starting to feel the music, it shows. 🎶They are learning that […]

Day 36 | Sembarific

Whappening Mi Gente? I’m going to Biggz Barber right now, feeling really good, gonna look even better after my bro is finished with my face 👹. My nose still hurts from my nose piercing on Saturday, but not as much. Crazy kind of pain, it goes straight from my nose to my eye. But it […]

Day 14 | Work Day, Happy Day

Today woke up with joy on my face, because yesterday’s open house was off the charts! The people were enthusiastic, the instructors were on point. We had the very first of the Dsantos franchises come up to give us a hand aka Dsantos VT, under the leadership of Sarah Snow. I was very proud to […]

Day 40 | Drambuie

#OoopsHeDidItAgain 😂 Another amazing night, Mi Gente. Celebrated my Polish boy Pavo’s bday. Then I danced all night at Mwangole, saw my friends from the USA and Portugal. Stopped dancing when the lights came on, after the sun rise at 6am, and the club kicked us out. Woke up a little dizzy, must be the […]

Day 38 | Wisdom

Mi gente! When life gives you lemons, you make tequila. I taught my first class last week. I ate an octopus. I partied on a boat. I got drunk on a train drinking 1€ beers with a stranger, he was cool. Life since Friday: Slept in Algarve | Woke up in Porto | Chilling in […]

Day 27 | Bring Back Dr. K

Wepa wepa! Last night was off the chain. Did another photo session with the one and only @Ludmilatolentinophotography and got to know Lisbon a bit more #thinkyouknowhadnoidea about this amazing and historical city . Paperwork: application submitted! Looks like your boy like they say in Brasil #eusouocara is going to be back in a month. […]
