“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 will teach you the basic rhythms, cultural context, steps and movements of Forró - so you can enjoy the dancefloor with ease.
First lesson = trial lesson
You decide whether you want to learn the role of leader, follower or both parts in the dance.
You don't need to bring a partner.
We look forward to welcoming you as part of the Forró community!

Timetable
Thursdays
17:45 to 19:15 Anfängerkurs
19:15 to 23:00 Freedance
It is possible to book the whole or half course. It is expressly desired that the entire course is attended. This ensures continuous learning and the quality of the course, as the content builds on each other. However, it is not a single workshop - so it is not a problem to miss a lesson.
Prerequisites
We want to provide a good experience for everyone and want everybody to learn as much as possible.
At our social dance (Monday and Thursday evenings) all dancers are happy to dance together regardless of dance technique or dance experience!
