What we’re about
Whether you're an absolute beginner or a seasoned dancer we're offering affordable lessons and quality social events for our group! No partner? No problem! We welcome both singles and couples -- no dance experience necessary.
We organize Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, Brazilian Zouk, West Coast Swing, Latin Hustle, and Ballroom dance events, primarily in the City of Edmonton.
We take the safety of our attendees very seriously and strive to have a fun/welcoming environment for all levels of dancers, regardless of which studio they may currently train at or what their background may be. Anyone can lead and anyone can follow, we do not gender roles at our events.
Note that we do promote events by other organizers in our group where they have asked us to do so and we feel their events would be a good fit for our group's members. Where that is the case, we will have the organizer's contact information listed in the event details.

- NeoKiz Weekender Edmonton 2024Sugar Swing Ballroom, Edmonton, AB
Come back to Edmonton and experience our vibrant Afro-Latin dance community! ❤️
From Friday, May 3, 2024 to Sunday, May 5, 2024, YEG Dancer is bringing you an epic event. More than 6 hours of workshops with Charles Ogar, a.k.a. Mr. NeoKiz, and Samantha Fast and 15 hours of day and evening socials. The unique sounds of DJ Ogarocious from Austin, TX, DJ SAvvy from Winnipeg, MB, and DJ Faye from Edmonton, AB will keep you dancing all night!
This event is one of a kind as it provides tremendous value to both roles given our two headliners are accomplished artists in their own right who both lead and follow socially. Don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity to level up your Kiz!
Workshops are geared towards dancers with some previous UrbanKiz/Kizomba experience. For newer dancers wanting to participate in the event, we will be offering an UrbanKiz/Kizomba Fundamentals Intensive with Samantha Fast in September 2023.

- West Coast Swing DanceBonnie Doon Community League, Edmonton, AB
Come out to Bonnie Doon Community League for an awesome night of West Coast Swing dancing!
West Coast Swing is a partner dance with roots in Lindy Hop. One of the things that make West Coast Swing unique is that it isn’t defined by a single music style and can be danced to most kinds of popular music. This social dance has a very strong improvisational aspect that allows partners the freedom to co-create which is what allows each dancer to showcase their unique style.
You do not need to come with a partner as we rotate partners throughout the dance class and social dancing portion, though if you do come with a partner, you have the option not to rotate.
