Mambo Deep Dive
Cape Town
Mambo Mambo Mambo
The magic of Mambo has to be seen and experienced to be believed!
The fluidity and sensuality of Mambo will keep you coming back for more, even transporting you to another world whilst your feet take on a life of their own to music in your head, when waiting in a queue, or while you traverse your house, or maybe you go to the weekly parties Cape Town had to offer. But wherever you do it, you will keep going for more!
With an amazing history as the music and the dance have grown and developed in the 20th and 21st Century! It has made its way to Cape Town and gripped us!
Even though you get your weekly dance fix, deeper experiences are on offer....
Join us for deep dive into the world of Mambo!
