Very energetic teacher. He kept it fun, if quite basic. They offered us a full refund after a scheduling snafu, which was kind.

Carla is a fantastic teacher! So encouraging and great methods for improving your technique instantly. I learned a lot, only popped in for one night while on holiday as I wanted to try out Samba and I got so much more than I expected. They also took photos to send to me after so I had a momento.

All perfect! Carla and his housband Charly were really charming and the course was amazing - so, I totally recommend it!

Enjoyed the course overall! The course was perfectly suited for us as beginners, starting from very simple, specific movements. I think 90 minutes would have been a more suitable length (than the 60 minutes we got), but that’s just my personal preferance. The room was too small for the number of people attending, which was a real drawback, but we still had a good time!

My first dance class ever. Teacher was amazing, so patient and helpful with klumsy me! Would repeat. Helped that it was a Monday noon so only three of us.

A fun no pressure way to learn a little samba! The instructor broke down the steps and made us feel comfortable to make mistakes.

Thanks so much Helio for great Samba tuition and an incredible Samba club visit afterwards. Helio has a real skill to put you at ease learning to Samba as a beginner. I did this solo and Samba works well for that. Great way to get to know others when travelling. The Samba Club was in an old antique place over several floors so the decor was exquisite. I would never have discovered it or gone there on my own without this tour. It’s a must for your trip to Rio.

I had a great time attending the samba class! The instructor was lovely - she gave me personal attention and ensured that she was teaching at my skill level. Would 10/10 recommend it!

Helio is a very fun teacher, he is very patient with beginners and very polite. He also helped us getting to the samba club after the lesson

We are an older couple who took this one hour lesson with our daughter and son-in-law. We had such fun with Bruno. He had us laughing at ourselves throughout the hour (which went way to quickly). I can't say we now know how to Samba but we have a few basic steps. It was something a bit different to do on our vacation and it turned into a highlight.

Had a great time with our instructor Bruno who explained us not only the steps for Samba but also explained us about the dance. The school was also very helpful and helped us fix the lesson

Hélio was an amazing teacher and I recommend this class to anyone! He was super patient and made the experience unforgettable. If he can teach me how to Samba, he can teach anyone 😂

This class was fabulous! It can accommodate all different levels of dancing, is super fun, and prepares you for a night out dancing in Lapa. The best part is that that part is included. Do it!

Great crash instruction. Communication at times was difficult with reservations. They our dates 3 times and confused meeting locations. The class itself however a very fun.

We (my wife, my daughter and myself) enjoyed a lot the lesson of Samba in Rio de Jaineiro. I the first lesson the teacher taught us the basic of Brasilian samba and other local dances explaining the spirit and the origin of those dances. Samba is part of the brazilian culture and this lesson was one of our super experience in our short stay in Rio. Thanks a lot!
