Samba

The Samba is festive and lighthearted, and performed today in all parts of the world. It brings to mind pictures of Rio’s festive and exotic Carnival! In its native land, the Samba is usually danced to a moderately slow tempo which contrasts vividly with the spirited version favored in U.S.

Brazilian Samba Classes

Samba no pé (literally, "samba in the foot") is a solo dance that is commonly danced impromptu when samba music is played. It’s what you think of when you imagine Brazilian Carnival parade dancers — with gigantic feather headdresses and elaborate (and skimpy) beaded costumes.
