Melbourne Samba Encontro Workshops 2018

A ONE-OFF MORNING OF DANCE & DRUM WORKSHOPS IN MELBOURNE! As part of the Melbourne Samba Encontro, we are proud to be hosting a morning of workshops on Saturday 14th July 2018, led by some of the best local and international percussionists and dancers. 2 Studios will be running side by side, one dedicated to dance, the other to drums. Each studio will hold 3 different one hour workshops, designed to help you hone your skills in these art forms. This is a great opportunity to learn some fresh skills, meet new people, and have some fun. It'll also get you nice and warmed up for the huge gig happening that evening in Northcote, with 8 huge samba bands and loads too many awesome dance crews to count! https://www.facebook.com/events/367496593756502/ DANCE STUDIO 09:00am - 10:00am Samba no Pé with Tami Fogueira (Sambase Ire) 10:15am - 11:15am Introduction to Orixá Dance with Fabiana Grimaldi (Ballet Folklorico Fabiana Grimaldi) 11:30am - 12:30am Samba Dance to Drums with Denise Kayan (Sambasita Productions) DRUM STUDIO 09:00am - 10:00am Caixa with Petyo Sós (Unidos da Cacatua) 10:15am - 11:15am Tamborim with Rob Arcari (Bloco 3K) 11:30am - 12:30am Jamming the Batucada with Mark Grunden (O'Ziriguidum Samba School) Prices are $25 per session, $45 for 2, or $55 for 3.
