| I always wanted to learn modern dance. Any ideas where an adult would go for such lessons? Also, what about something fun like Samba? |

I don't know about Bethesda...but LOVE Samba! It is one of the trickier Latin dances (but my personal favorite) and requires A LOT of patience learning the rhythm. Most of my Zumba students get discouraged with this style...but I tell them, once you put in the time to get it down it is SO much fun!
Other places to check out Samba: www.rodamovements.com/ http://www.meetup.com/brazilians-123/members/3585259/?op=&memberId=3585259 (Danielle Areco holds Samba lessons at various places all over the area and I hire her to do my Samba workshops) www.dcdancecollective.com |

| There are also many styles of Samba....European/American Ballroom, Brazilian Ballroom, Carnaval (from Rio), and more Afro-Brazilian styles. But I love all of them! Other fun Brazilian dances are: Forro, Pagode, Lambada, and the latest hottest from Brazil is called Axe (pronounced A-shea). |
