Hamburger Forró-Tage [english]

Dear Forrozeiros,

It will be soon: Our 3rd Festivalzinho, "Hamburger Forró-Tage"!

 

Last time, half a year ago, we had two days of workshops with great teachers and parties on both nights.

Since then our group grew bigger, so we had to make some changes: Better dance hall for the workshops, bigger location for the main event on saturday night, live-music from outstanding bands on both nights.


As teachers we are delighted to welcome Vitor and Aleksandr, both from Berlin - both will be supported by our Joana.

 

The live-music will be provided by Sambaião de 2, coming from Lisboa only for this occation, and our great local band Forroxodó!

 

It became tradition in our group to celebrate each ended semester of forró-classes in a proper way. It's wonderful to see so many beginners making it through their first class and it's also great to see many of you dancing with us since three or even four semesters. That's more reason than needed to burn the stage. At the end of the day the classes are not the cause, why you learn how to dance. You do it for events like this one.

 

 

It goes withous saying that we are very glad for everybody visiting Hamburg for this very occation. You are more than welcome and if you need some help to find accommodation, please use the contact-form of this webpage.

For the "Hamburger Forró-Tage" we promised you two teachers for whom you would gladly save the entire weekend. To find any we kept a close eye on the european forró-scene, only to realize (at least since our last trip to Berlin), than there was no need to look so far into the distance. Great teachers can also be found right next to us, in Berlin! 

 

 

 

Vitor Mello and Aleksandr Abroskin, both from the group Tome Forró Berlin - both will be assisted by Joana, our groups teacher.

 

Vitor and Aleksandr are part of the team, which established one of the biggers and most pleasent groups in germany in only a couple of years. On August 20th and 21st you will be given the opportunity to see, why they have so much success. We are very glad to welcome them, especially as this will be one of the very rare opportunities to see them giving classes outside of Berlin.
