Like Brazil itself, samba is a joining of many cultural influences, with portions from Africa, Europe, as well as from the indigenous people of the Brazilian region of South America. Developed in Bahia and brought to Rio de Janeiro by Brazilians of African descent, samba has been embraced across Brazilian society.

There are many different styles of samba music and dance in Brazil. In this instructional DVD Quenia Ribeiro teaches the sexy exciting samba from Rio. Quenia demonstrates the basic footwork of samba and then breaks down the movements into concise, understandable steps that anyone can follow.

Rio´s famous Carnaval is celebrated annually preceding Lent. The Escolas De Samba (samba schools) are community-based organizations, that create the music, dance, costumes and world-renowned floats of the Carnaval parade. In addition to the musicians (bateria), the parade is comprised of "alas"(wings). Many wings you will see when you visit the Carnaval of Rio follow choreographed dance routines just like the ones demonstrated on this DVD.
