Bokwa Fitness

Bokwa is an intense cardio workout combining elements of African Dance, kickboxing, light-boxing and step. Created by dancer and fitness instructor Paul Mavi, who hails from South Africa.

Established in 2000, Paul's passion for his South African roots, dance and fitness were integrated to create a fun workout program that improved the quality of life for auditory, kinesthetic and visual learners.

BOKWA ®, is a trademarked name and workout that is derived from a combination of two words. "BO" represents the light boxing and "KWA" representing the cultural and traditional dance Kwaito, hence, BOKWA is born.

It is an intense cardiovascular workout combined with South African war dance, Kickboxing and Steps. It has been proven to burn a great amount of calories making it easier for weight loss goals.

BOKWA is a unique dance fitness program due to the use of letters and numbers as placement combined with use of hand signals and American Sign Language. It is refreshing and builds strength and endurance driven by the pulsating rhythmic beats of African, Latin, Popular dance and House music. Bokwa is an innovative dance fitness program that is an abundance of fun and does NOT feel like a workout!
