Our focus

We are a school specialized in Samba Reggae, with roots in the Bahian tradition. Our instructors have learned from the best Mestres and Mestrinhas of Pelourinho and Candeal, and we strive to recreate the energy and spirit of Salvador de Bahia in each session.

Sessions

We offer weekly 1.5 hour group classes, where we combine music with dance and choreography. As the course progresses, we will incorporate specific concepts of staging and choreography.

​

  • Introduction to Samba Reggae and Salvador de Bahía, both culturally and musically.

  • Learning technique and basic exercises with the different samba reggae instruments.

  • Learning the rhythms of the main Blocos and groups of Salvador de Bahía: Olodum, Didá, Timbalada, Cortejo Afro, among others.

  • Execution of cuts, entries and exits of the bases. Musical expression exercises through improvisation.

  • Exploration of choreography and rhythmic variations.
