Prahran classes Monday

Beginners/ fundamentals samba drop-in classes

Each class we break down the basic samba no pé step as well as a few other simple moves while having fun, exercising, meeting new friends, and enjoying beautiful Brazilian music. This is a mixed level class open to those brand new to samba or dancers who want to dedicate more time to fundamental samba technique or warm up really well before the next class. Please note there will be minimal choreography in this class, a few simple sequences, lots of drills, and repetition! Even if you have a significant dance background, it’s recommended you attend this class before trying the intermediate class, if you are new to samba.
