Gafieira is usually a pair dance, although in artistic performances it is not uncommon to add solo variations, including steps of Samba no Pé. The word “gafieira” can also refer to the traditional samba music orchestra, as well as the dance hall where it is performed.
The term gafieira was Brazilian Portuguese slang meaning “low dancing resort, gaff, honky-tonk” or “dance festivity frequented by the populace”. The style originated fom samba dancing in cabarets and gafieiras (hence the name, literally meaning “Samba of gafieira”), primarily in districts of Botafogo, Catete and Centro of Rio de Janeiro.
The term gained recognition in 1940s. Over time the style significantly evolved away from the style 1940s under significant influence of Argentine Tango and incorporating many acrobatic elements.
