Welcome to Forró!
Brazil has given the world many amazing dances beyond samba and forró is one of its true gems. 🤩Rooted in Northeastern Brazil, forró is a joyful and social partner dance that combines connection, rhythm, and playfulness.💃🕺
Forró is danced in pairs and can include everything from a close, gentle embrace to lively arm movements, turns, spins, and energetic variations. It is both fun and expressive, and it can be enjoyed at many different tempos and styles.✨
In this intro class, we will cover:
- the basic steps
- the rhythm and music
- the embrace/partner connection
- simple turns and movements
No prior dance experience is needed—beginners are very welcome. 🫶
We recommend changing partners during class, as dancing with different people is one of the best ways to develop your skills, improve your lead/follow communication, and become a more confident dancer. ✨You will also have the opportunity to try both leader and follower roles, if you would like.
Please wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely.
We look forward to dancing with you!
