Samba is the super fun party dance from Brazil showing off plenty of bounce and rhythmical body actions. Samba Bounce makes the dance instantly recognisable and important to become familiar with.
To get your body used to Samba Bounce, first stand with slightly flexed knees with your weight towards the balls of the feet. Now tilt your pelvis and hips forwards and back - imagine doing crunches standing up.
The next layer is to separate your feet about hips width and transfer your weight from side to side. This time imagine you’re drawing the shape of a rainbow when bouncing from side to side, rising up through the leg and foot before lowering on the opposite foot. Keep the pelvis tilting forwards when you lower and back when you rise up.
Now if that doesn’t make much sense to you, check out the video below, which i’m sure will help you out! Remember Samba is the carnival party dance so have some fun with it!
