We didn’t know what to expect since we are not good dancers, but we had so much fun and Gaby was great teacher so we managed to learn some basic moves.

I have a fabulous dance session with my sister. Gabby our teacher was brilliant and super helpful, guiding us individually when she felt we needed the extra support. The samba lesson really had my heart pumping 😅 A must-do when you are in Rio 😍
