Often performed at celebrations, Sabar is an upbeat dance filled with energetic and fun movements. During this unique dance class, you will learn the basic technique and footwork of Sabar. From there, incorporate these steps into a distinct choreography that’ll have you popping your lapa (no worries, it’s just a skirt) across the dance floor.
Bring your lapa and get ready to dance!
