Samba de Gafieira is a couple dance with a lot of joie de vivre. More info about Samba de Gafieira
We offer a beginners course and an intermediate course.
The beginner course is a beginner course for people with or without previous knowledge. You will learn the basic steps, first variations and everything you need to have fun on the dance floor.
In the intermediates’ course you will deepen your knowledge about the concepts you learned in the beginners’ course, as well as learning new steps and variation.
You do not need a fixed partner – during the course the pairings are regularly rotated.
A course (8x60min) costs 50 EUR. From a registration in pairs there is a 20% discount (40 EUR p.p.). From a registration with four persons there is a discount of 30% (35 EUR p.p.).
Free dancing is always open for everyone.

Here some of our students train after class by combining the newly learned figures with their already familiar movements.
To reach the level of the professional dancers of Rio, a lot of dedication is required. But even with a little practice you can have a lot of fun on the dance floor and enjoy the beautiful combination of elegance and dynamics that Samba offers.
