Recently the 4th edition of the Angolan Dance Festival took place in Krakow, Poland. The festival was hosted by Polish dance instructors as well as the 2013 ÁfricAdançar World Champions. ÁfricAdançar is a mixture of kizomba and samba and improvised kuduro and afrohouse. Though Semba represents the traditional type of Angolan music, Kizomba is the most popular genre and emerged when Kassav, the French-Caribbean zouk band, toured Africa in 1986.
