Classes typically start with a fun warm up to get our bodies moving and our heart rates going (cardio). Followed by some squats and lunges to strengthen our bodies and then into some drills to learn the basic steps of samba. Our classes also include some parading (walking, body movements and posing) to help push us out of our comfort zones and have a bit of fun. All music played during class is a mix of Brazilian samba (many different styles). Feel in another world and energized from the upbeat rhythm of the music. The class will conclude with a warm down and stretch. Feel free to hang around for a social chat and get to know a beautiful group of like minded people.

Please bring a positive and kind attitude to class. It is absolutely ok to ask questions throughout class and speak up if you need help.
