By chance I found this video. Very nice nevertheless I got somehow confused ... I am in salsa, cumbia, son, chacha, bachata for years and I do feel the "beat" of kizomba. However the kizomba steps do not look that clear to me for ex. to transform two 3 step moves into the 4/4 count since there is no pause or tap to pass on a count? Can you give me some guidance - thanks ?

I came into Kizomba from dancing salsa and bachata for years, and it does mess with your head at first until you get around it (or it did with mine) - you kind of have to "unlearn" what you know from other dances where you do fit your steps into a 4/4 count (or 8 beats), maybe with a pause, or styling, or break such as a tap. As you've noticed, not all "moves" are done over 4 or 8 steps - the basic forward and back is 6 steps, for example. Even though I've been dancing kizomba and semba for 2 or 3 years, I can't really give a complete answer - the best I can do is that I don't count the same way I did with salsa & bachata, just feel. And that when you get past the more basic stuff, it just flows. If that makes sense.

@@mrman17 Hi, meanwhile I got adapted to the sensitivity of the music (the flow). I just emphasize lets say the "1" and the following "1" and in between anything is possible ex: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5O5apmKZ7Kfqrc

[@RR-js1el]

you can pause, you can close, but advanced dancers just move on ;)

@@mrman17 May I ask. So, in what way do you count initially to transition from the Salsa mind to Kiz step????

[@yamatoyukihiro]

This is exactly what's been bothering me for the past few weeks now too. The steps in urban kiz don't seem to follow a fixed count but somehow they end up reconnecting with the beat.

Very important useful video. Thanks for making this video. I wonder if kizomba music runs on different beats, like 5 beats instead of 8. I also wonder if tempo stays same or does it vary on the same song?

[@mrman17]

There is a whole "umbrella" of music that kizomba is danced to, including zouk and ghetto zouk as well as "kizomba". Most are in "common time" AKA 4/4 time, which this song is. Again, on the whole, like with this video, the tempo stays the same, but the intensity changes - if you note, the verses are less intense than the chorus. In particular, look at the moving graph at the top during the "bridge", notice how much smaller the peaks are? You dance slower, calmer, on the less intense parts of the song and then change it up on the livelier parts, such as the chorus. Musicality is very important in kizomba along with how you interpret the music.
