Sunday 19th July - 11am - Online Dance Class - Epi Sunday 19th July - 11am - Online Dance Class - Episode 1 - Maracatu . In 2020 we started a regular class in North Eastern Brazilian dance styles. Given that we’re still in Covid restrictions we’ve decided to do an online version. We’ll be premiering the video on Youtube so you can watch it directly on our channel or on our website: Link in bio to take part and set a reminder. . This class is perfect for anyone who’s always wanted to give Carnival dance a try, through to more experienced dancers wishing to extend their understanding of Pernambucan dance styles from the North East of Brazil…and now you can do it from the comfort of your own home.
