Fun - It was a very well conducted class that with simplicity and naturalness achieved the goal of learning someone passed from samba . Very nice and friendly teacher

NOT as advertised, but super fun activity! - There were about 20 of us in the class, the lesson was super fun and everyone was in great spirits even though we were pretty much all terrible 😁 I will say this was NOT as advertised. It was just the one hour class and no going samba dancing afterwards.

Vibes Were Vibing - This was an amazing experience! Bruno is a great teacher with high expectations in the hour, but that makes it all the more fun and challenging! Spoiler alert: this tour ended with a trip to Pedro do Sal, a legendary local samba jam that locals might not otherwise find their way into or feel very comfortable in. An amazing value added after a samba lesson! I’m so grateful I got to have this experience because I wasn’t sure I’d make it there and it was nice to feel more confident about samba, even if only slightly! 😂

It was great! Got to... - It was great! Got to learn how to dance samba and went to the best samba club. Though I felt the instructor had a bit of bias and was helping some people more than others, I did have a good time

Enormous fun - The samba lesson was enjoyable and the instructor was engaging and full of personality. The club was one of the high spots of our holiday. There were two bands and professional dancers intermingled. The club is like a museum,really quirky. So glad we did this, a brilliant experience.

Amazing!! - It was a great experience! Jackie was an excellent samba instructor and made the steps very easy to follow. My husband and I really enjoyed it! We then went to Rio Scenarium after the Samba class and it was amazing. The live music band was incredible and we danced all night. Would definitely recommend this experience!

Great Dance Workout - Great experience for a first timer! The instructor takes his time for each individual. It's definitely a workout, and timing is everything.

Overpriced - Enjoyed the 1h dancing course to learn some initial steps. But the teacher was not really motivated to get us to the night club location (which was an interesting location). Overpriced for what we got in the end.

Sudden venue change - On the day of 2/17, I went to the venue designated as the voucher, but it was locked and not available, and I asked someone inside and they said they didn't do it today and I couldn't join in the end. Apparently, the location was changed just before the event, and I was contacted by email etc. (I was in advance by email on my PC, and my smartphone meds were not registered. This was my mistake), I couldn't confirm it, and my pre-booking from Japan to practice in samba class before the carnival was wasted. In Brazil, last minute changes occur as a matter of course, so if you want to make a reservation, you need to make sure that you have access to local contacts, which was a learning experience. If you wanted, I just wanted the voucher-designated venue to put a notice about the change of venue. The content of the samba experience itself is probably good, but I didn't get to taste it, so I gave it this rating.
