American dancers reportedly flocked local dance studios to learn the dance and now the dance style creator, DJ Bongz is off to the US to teach a special class on February 26.
“I created the dance from scratch and it feels so special to have it shown on an international stage like the Grammys. It shows that Africa can make a big impact on international dance.
“I am going to tour America a few time between now and June and I was asked to come hold a workshop and teach people the gwara gwara. After the Rihanna performance I got a lot of calls and I am excited by the opportunity,” he told TshisaLIVE.
Bongz also plans to take the dance lessons across Africa. “We are trying to secure more sponsors but so far we are planning to head to Mozambique, Botswana, Zambia and Nigeria. We will be representing South Africa. We want to show the world that we are the dance capital of Africa.”
