Location: Acht Töne, Große Seestr. 32-34
Monday
Pratica at Saalbau Gallus – 19:30 – 21:30
We offer a space for you to practice Forró in a relaxed environment to all levels.
Wednesday
18:30 – 19:30
Intermediate: Move
Gisela & Sofia
This trimester is all about leveling up what you already know. We’ll build smooth sequences using familiar moves, focusing on better control, flow, and connection with your partner. Once everything feels natural and effortless, we’ll add variations to expand your dance and boost your creativity.
Focus – Caminhada (and variations), Paulistas, Channel, Chapeu, Bate e Volta, Costas com Costas, and Quebra de Braço.
19:30 – 20:30
Intermediate +: All About Displacement
Gisela & Sofia
It is all about movement and flow through space. We’ll explore how to travel on the dance floor using direction changes, turns, and better space awareness. Move more, feel the space, and dance with intention.
Focus: 5-step turns (and variations), caminhadas, and trava.
20:30 – 21:30
Beginners+: Downbeat
Gisela & Aurelia
Perfect for students who are comfortable with basic Forró steps, have good weight transfer and balance, and already know some movements like Caminhada, Costas com costas, Quebra de braco and Facão.
Focus: Rhythm and musicality, how to recognize and catch the downbeat (tempo forte) across different Forró styles. You’ll also explore the structure of the music, learn to catch breaks, and add flavor to your dance without needing complicated moves.
