Intermediate Samba is the perfect next step for students who are already comfortable with the basic samba step and understanding of samba movement vocabulary. You will improve your skill through strengthening exercises and technique drills, while also learning choreography, developing your unique style, diving into musicality and embracing your sensuality. We will cultivate a non-competitive, supportive dance community for every-body. We encourage artistic exploration and the freedom to be your best self!

On our first class we will talk about each student’s personal growth goals and make sure we support each other to reach them. So, wear your most comfortable and confidence-inspiring workout clothes, running/dance sneakers (or bare feet), and don’t forget your water bottle- let’s dance!
