What we’re about
We are passionate about the Brazilian partner dance called forró (see below) and we want to share our passion with you!
We organise light hearted fun lessons where you can learn the basic steps, feel the rhythm and learn to flow around the dance floor.
We offer fantastic offers for first timers at our Meet Ups and you will soon get to know the crowd that has been dancing for longer.
We also run 8 week beginner and improver courses and a few festivals too! Check our website for upcoming dates here.
