Forró DC

📅Come out to Forró in the Park this Sunday at 1pm - 3pm! We are continuing our weekly dances in May (*except Sun. 5/24*, the day of the Forró NYC Festival and Afro-Bahia Festival in DC) in the park at Dupont Circle! ✏️ Bring a snack to share from home or the Farmers Market- it's a great time to connect and practice our new moves!

🇧🇷Look for the Brazilian flag, Meetup sign, and blue picnic blanket by the Dupont Circle Fountain after the Farmer’s Market ends!

👀By popular demand, we might try some other Brazilian dances as the práctica goes on!

Forró is Brazil's favorite partner dance because of its ease and fun. On Sat. March 7th (3:30-5pm class, 5-7pm social), (Lunna Gomes and Gabriela Neri Vieira) are leading a Forró class that is suitable for ALL levels: the basics plus a fun combination!

Get even more out of the Forró class:
✨ Meet the fun community of dancers
✨ Try your dance moves at the social after the lesson

If you’ve been saying you want to learn to dance and check out a new hobby, this is your moment. Forró is a terrific experience.

Learn musical timing, movement, connection… a solid dance foundation.

✨ This is a family-friendly zone
✨ Come solo or bring a partner (we rotate)
