Vamos chamegar forrozeires - Time to dance some cozy forró
Here some information about our association.
Charlotte Brohmeyer
...is a professional dancer and choreographer from Berlin.
She discovered forró in Portugal in 2016. This opened up a new world of encounters, poetry and the joy of dance for her. Through extended stays in Brazil and encounters with inspiring dancers such as Felipe Raso, Mari Brasil and Marcos Affonso, among others, her passion for teaching forró developed. In addition to regular classes in Berlin, she gives workshops at various festivals. Charlotte experiences forró as a very refreshing, creative and varied dance. Therefore, she enjoys combining and sharing her knowledge from different forms of movement. In addition to the joy of movement, music and the connection between dancers, she focuses on technique and precision of steps and posture in her classes. She takes great pleasure in teaching first steps to beginners as well as challenging choreographic sequences to experienced dancers.
