“This was such a fun experience! We are visiting Rio for a week and this was the perfect thing to do on a Tuesday afternoon. I like the times available, we had plenty to choose from and the class was so much fun! Our instructor Gaby was great! And she was very patient!”

“Loved it! It was so much fun! It was hard to believe that we were able to mar it work with as many people as there were! Marco was amazing and friendly and helped everyone. I went with my teenage son and he helped him too! The dance class was great with communication and getting us to the right spot, even sending a picture with an arrow so we don’t miss it. Overall great experience and would do it again.”

“I just had to share this incredible experience we stumbled upon recently! So, my wife and I were on the hunt for something fun to do, and we came across this Samba class that promised not only dance lessons but also a taste of that electric nightclub atmosphere. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Our instructor, Elio (I hope I got the spelling right!), was an absolute gem.

During the lesson, we had an English guide who helped to translate, as Nati was teaching in Spanish, but it was super easy to follow her steps regardless of the language. You don’t need to be a dancer to enjoy this activity - she is an excellent instructor! At the end of our lesson, Nati…”

“I was the only student! Bem Vind was the instructor. He explained very clear about each step. Very professional with counts and accent of each step. He went right to the dance and I just followed him, he stopped and explained when he saw I did not get it, then we kept repeating until I felt comfortable. We did across the floor and turns, forward & backwards. This is a crash course, being a dance director of ballet and modern dance, Samba is quite challenging for me. I wish I stay for a week to take the class daily. He taught the class that we used the whole space.”
