You will see a lot of events around ZOUK or KIZOMBA music and dances; this is because we believe that Zouk and Kizomba is to French Speaking Culture what SALSA is to Spanish Speaking Culture; a tropical fun gathering music so we can all have fun around around some fun music many of them in French.

We started this group because we wanted to share our knowledge and provide those who are learning French an opportunity to improve their skills. We have partnered up with some great organizations to bring you the best value in this meetup. Like: https://www.facebook.com/KizoukaCalgary/ Some of our members also wanted to improve their Spanish or Portuguese. So we are also hosting joint event with members of other cultural groups.
