LOCATION
The venue is located on the lower ground floor in a tower-block building, on the backside! Above the front door is a large gray entrance sign with the ccap and c.off logos. Ring the door bell if the entrance is closed.
It is less than 5 mins walk from T-bana Tekniska Högskolan. The nearest bus stop is Körsbärsvägen (bus 61) or Valhallavägen (bus 4). Along the way there are several small plate signs that show you the direction to the ccap/c.off space where we hold the classes.
ABOUT THE TEACHERS
Luiz is from Minas Gerais in Brasil. He has been living and dancing forro in Stockholm for several years and has developed his own style of forro mixing Forro universitario and forro itaunas, focusing in a playful and enjoyable dance, with the motto that forro should always be fun!
Martim comes from Sao Paulo, Brazil’s largest city and with a historical samba culture that rivals Rio. He has danced gafieira for many years and has participated as a student and teacher in open social projects in Sao Paulo. Given his background, he prefers a more relaxed approach to teaching to get people to love gafieira and to think it is easy despite it relatively high technical difficulty.
