About Samba
Samba is the rhythmically electrifying national dance of Brazil, born from the extraordinary cultural fusion of African traditions with the European and indigenous heritage of Rio de Janeiro in the early 20th century. Far more than a single dance, Samba is a rich family of styles including Samba no Pé — the solo percussive footwork of Carnival — Samba de Gafieira the sophisticated partner dance of Rio ballrooms, Samba Pagode, and the internationally competed Ballroom Samba, all united by complex polyrhythmic movement, expressive hip articulation, and a deep joyful connection to the driving batucada percussion. The Rio Carnival — one of the world most spectacular cultural celebrations — showcases Samba in its most elaborate and glorious expression as massive Samba schools compete with thousands of costumed performers. Samba classes for all levels are available at Brazilian cultural organizations, Latin dance studios, and Ballroom schools across the United States. Find a Samba dance studio near you and feel the pulse of Brazil.
