Highlights
  • Langa - HOST EXAMPLE:
    The lead Zumba entrepreneur has a one-of-a-kind flare and personality that makes you come alive. On a water break, he will share his inspiring story of how dance and exercise got him out of a life as a gangster.


On the drive to Langa (if ‘Hotel Pickup add-on’ added), your guide will give you some key information about where you’re headed, who the community partners are, what you’ll experience, and general best practices to bear in mind.

Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by the community partners and your guide will help break the ice a bit before jumping into the African Zumba & Stories experience.

Try your hand (and foot) at some of the local styles: African Dance, Afro-Fusion, Kasi Jive, Pantsula, Kwela, Traditional Xhosa & Traditional Tswana.

The time together is always dynamic and responsive to guest preferences, but generally it’s evenly split 3 ways: (A) Zumba dancing, (B) Storytelling & advocacy, (C) Grace time & natural interaction.

Dance not your thing? Jam out on our djembe drums!

N.B. NOTE: Kids from a community-based after-school program will only be present if you book an option that includes the ‘Kids add-on’.

Additional Information

Dive into a unique experience guided by a local trailblazer! Experience the captivating depth beneath Cape Town’s typical tourist scene.

A Side by Side experience is an excellent, interactive way to break free from the usual tourist path, live like an inhabitant, and make a difference. A part of each reservation goes directly to the trailblazers we have collaborated with in the form of essential end-of-year gifts: gear, scholarships, and monetary grants.

To make sure your trailblazer-guided experience runs seamlessly and all guests’ demands are fulfilled, an SbS guide will be accompanying you throughout, from pick-up to drop-off (if you opt for the Hotel Pickup add-on). Your guide will equip you with all the necessary background information and cover your entry fees.

Optionally, you can also add the Photoshoot add-on to receive HD pictures/videos of your experiences via Google Drive on the very same day.

Learn, giggle, envision, connect, and emerge transformed after participating in this experience with genuinely inspirational locals.
