SAMBA
At a Glance
The Samba is a lively and spirited dance, known for its syncopated rhythm and joyful bounce. It’s danced in 2/4 or 4/4 time, with a unique “samba bounce” that gives the dance its distinct energy. Featuring hip action, traveling steps, and rotating movements, Samba captures the vibrancy of Brazilian culture, blending dynamic footwork with a playful spirit that makes every dance an expression of joy and freedom.

Origins
The Samba originated in Brazil, influenced by African rhythms and European dance styles. Emerging from the carnival streets of Rio de Janeiro in the early 20th century, Samba quickly became a symbol of Brazilian national pride. Its upbeat music and festive nature made it an integral part of Brazilian culture, and it soon transitioned to the ballroom, becoming a celebrated dance worldwide.
