“Forró is the music of the people, made by the people and for the people, it is music for celebration, devotion, fun, communion and struggle.” - Fernando Corrêa.

Join us to discover the world of Forró, a Brazilian rhythm and couple dance!

Build connection through dancing and get into the flow.

We teach you the basic Forró steps and first figures and practise the connection while dancing.

There will be a follow-up course from mid-April 2025.
