Course Notes

 

Welcome to a safe space, where you can unleash the inner dancer in you; and wear a permanent smile throughout the class. The music is uplifting and energetic you will lose yourself in the rhythms of Latin America.

Come and let the rhythm take control, and discover a dance genre that will loosen and improve your whole wellbeing.

The steps are easy to pick up and choreography is straight forward, so everyone can join in, even you with two left feet.

So, come and treat your body and feet to the colourful sounds of the Rio de Janeiro. You'll be in safe hands with your teacher Morilie Taiwo, who teaches the dancers for the renowned The Ministry Of Samba.

No experience necessary. We welcome all ages and abilities. This is not a partner dance and different from ballroom samba.
