In his early childhood Helio danced the tradicional dances from Cabo Verde, namely Coladeira, Morna, Mazurka, Funaná, Kola San Jon, and Batuque. Kizomba, or “Passada” in Cabo Verde, was something he always had by his side. In Cabo Verde it is not taught because it is part of the culture and daily life of the country. As a consequence, Hélio Developed his personal style in Kizomba. His teaching methodology was personally developed as the result of his life path, And his experiences travelling Around the world teaching Kizomba. Helio concluded his studies at P.A.R.T.S.
