Brazilian Samba dance class blending traditional rhythms with Afro-diaspora dances, led by Deise Costa.
Deise Costa leads a Brazilian Samba dance class at Kerry Hall on Thursday, October 8, in Seattle. It's a session that blends traditional Samba rhythms with Afro-diaspora dances, so you'll be working with both the classic Brazilian side of things and the broader African-influenced movements that shape it. Costa is the one running the whole thing, taking you through the steps and the rhythms that tie the two together.
If you've never danced Samba, this is a good place to start. The class is built around the music, so you'll be learning the footwork and the swing of the dance alongside the rhythms that drive it. The Afro-diaspora element brings in the connection between Brazilian Samba and the dances of the African diaspora, so it's not just about the steps—it's about where they come from. Costa leads the class, and the focus is on the dance itself, blending those two traditions in one session.
