Atmosphere, attire, duration… Discover everything you need to know to enjoy this festive Brazilian experience in Barcelona!

Do you need to be physically fit to dance the samba?

Not necessarily! Our Samba classes welcome everyone, regardless of your energy level.

Your instructor adapts the intensity and guides you through the basic movements: typical side steps, bounces and hip swings. The emphasis is on the joy of carnival rather than physical endurance.

We offer three formats: Tempo (1 hour), Ritmo (1 hour 30 minutes) or Fuego (2 hours).

All our classes are private and reserved for your group, from 2 to 80 people. Perfect for a festive hen party, an energising team-building event, a birthday celebration, a summer event or any other joyful occasion!

You will discover the characteristic movements of Brazilian samba: basic steps, rhythms, hip movements and festive attitude.

You will leave with a complete carnival choreography. It is a true immersion in Brazilian culture, not just a superficial introduction!
