A really fun samba class! - The samba class was one of the best experiences I had in Salvador. The studio was very helpful and flexible with scheduling the time of the class for our group and also really appreciate that it was in English. Yasmin was our teacher and she taught us so much! We learned a little about the history of samba and got to learn it in its original form. It was a really fun class, I’d love to do it again. Also loved the skirts she gave for the first part, they were cute.

Excellent Capoeira class! - Yasmin was an excellent teacher! I can’t believe we learned capoeira in an hour. Very patient and kept a nice pace with the class. She taught us the history behind this art form and its mind/body connection. I highly recommend Yasmin’s class. A must do in Salvador!

Capoeira Lesson in Salvador - If you have ever watched Capoeira and are interested to learn more and give it a try then I strongly recommend this activity! It is based in the first Capoeira school where it all began in the beautiful heart of Pelourinho, you will get to learn about the history of Capoeira, its importance to the community and of course you will get to learn and practice some moves! Yasmin is an excellent teacher who speaks perfect English and is passionate about Capoeira. The school is easy to find, very close to the tourist areas and no prior experience is needed. The best 1 hour activity in Salvador!!
