Forró Workshop for Non Beginners

FORRÓ WORKSHOP FOR NON BEGINNERS

Forró
A dance out of Northeast Brazil. It is danced all over Brazil, and even in New York City. Some people say that the word “forró” comes from the English words “for all”, which meant that everyone was welcome to the parties organized by the English, who were building roads in Northeast Brazil, and holding parties for their Brazilian employees. But the word “forró”, probably comes from the word “forrobodó”, which meant the popular parties powered by music, dance and “cachaça”. A Forró band is usually comprised of an accordion, a zambumba (drum), and a triangle. In New York City you can dance Forró, listen to great music, and mix with Brazilians many nights during the week.
