Let's go! Today at 4 pm!
🪘 Samba dancers, Angel and Deara are back with a brand new Samba Dance Fitness class starting THIS Sunday, March 5 at 4:00 PM!
🙌 Join these seasoned samba instructors every Sunday for a one of a kind dance fitness class. As leaders of the Asheville Samba dance group that frequently performs in local festivals and parades, Angel and Deara bring years of dance experience into creating this class.
They infuse classic samba dance moves into upbeat music for a fun workout.
📌 More about the class:
Have fun while getting a great workout AND improving your dancing skills. This class consists of lead and follow dance fitness routines to Asheville Samba's favorite music including Samba, Samba-Reggae, Salsa, Reggaeton, Afrobeat. Some routines focus on drilling specific steps and body isolations, while others will be follow-along choreographies. We may occasionally stop to review a step or choreography but the main goal will be to stay moving and learn through repetition.
⏩ Drop in price is $12 or use your dance fitness class pack or membership.

We played at Highland Brewing last night for Bike Love! The event was hosted by , a non-profit advocating for better biking and walking infrastructure in Asheville, NC and the surrounding Western North Carolina region. We are glad to support them, and always happy to play for the community!

Angel practicing for the new class today. Angel and Deara will be leading Samba Fitness Fusion. "Fusion" because we will be branching into other musical genres. It's going to be a killer workout! And great for improving body movement and dance skills as well. Hope to see you there! 4:00 every Sunday at Uphora Dance + Drop-ins welcome!

So excited about our new dance fitness class! This will be an hour of non-stop dance to a variety of music centered around samba but also branching out into other genres. The format will be lead and follow with some time spent breaking down and slowing down movements as needed.
