HOW WE DANCE TOGETHER
1. Respect every “no.” Anyone can decline a dance, for any reason, without explaining. A “no, thank you” is a complete answer and must always be accepted respectfully.
2. Dance with care. Use a comfortable connection and movements appropriate to your partner’s experience. Close connection is a part of Kizomba dance, but it should feel welcome and comfortable for both partners. Never force closeness or movement. If you cannot find a connection that works for both of you, it is okay to decline or end the dance.
3. You can stop at any moment. Either partner can end a dance. When possible, let your partner know politely—for example, “Thank you, I’d like to stop.” You don’t have to explain your reason, and your partner should respect your decision. If you feel unsafe, you can stop and leave immediately.
4. No unwanted touch or comments. This includes inappropriate touching, sexual remarks, and any pressure to dance or to stay closer than your partner wants.
5. Keep the floor friendly. Please don’t teach or correct your partner unless they ask. Everyone is learning, and we’re all here to enjoy the music.
6. Look after yourself and others. Come with good hygiene and be mindful of space on a busy floor. Please don’t dance if alcohol or other substances affect your judgement, coordination or ability to respect boundaries.
