Join us for an engaging workshop led by Adriana Blanco, a graduate student in the UNCG Dance Department and professional Samba dancer and teacher. Participants will explore the cultural roots of Samba while learning basic and intermediate movements that bring its rhythm and energy to life. The session will also include the screening of short films tracing Samba’s embodied expressions from the 1960s to the 2000s, highlighting shifts in rhythm, pace, and style. All levels are welcome—come ready to move, learn, and connect!
Refreshments will be served, and the event will close with an open dialogue space for reflection and exchange.
