Dance Styles
We teach a variety of latin dance styles - all authentic from South America.
In Havana, Cuba in the 1950's people danced ‘Son’ and other Cuban rhythms in the clubs and at parties. It was only after 1973 when these styles arrived in North America that the name ‘Salsa’ was created.
Samba is the most popular music style and one of the most popular latin dance styles in Brazil.
Bolero is seen as a romantic, smooth and very graceful latin dance style.
The musicality of tango Argentino is the most important element of the dance. The basic idea of the dance is taking your partner in an embrace and walking, using the music to guide your steps.
Forró is fun and cuddly, and is suited for all ages.
The most popular dance style in Brazil today.
This style of samba is what is seen in the Brazilian Carnival which is held every year around February/March - 44 days before Easter
