Só com a ajuda do Santo

Só com a ajuda do Santo

Der Besuch der Sambaschule Mangueira ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert. Man sieht wie die Passistas in unglaublicher Geschwindigkeit ihre Beine zum Rhythmus der Bateria de Samba bewegen, welcher am Ende selbst uns Zuschauer mit dem Sambafieber ansteckt und zum Mittanzen animiert.

On Saturday we had a great time at Quadra da Mangueira with the night theme: Só com a ajuda do santo. With Carnival coming up, the place was full of energy and our students were really happy knowing a little bit about it. GRES Mangueira is the current champion of the Carioca Carnival. As the night was a rehearsal, we had the show of musicians, dancers and all the important members of the school.

Samba seemed impossible for us in the beginning, but after some caipirinhas we risked ourselves with some steps  and we had a lot of fun. Besides dancing, we also learned how to sing the theme song for Carnival. The Rio & Learn former student Saaya, who is a dancer at Mangueira, did a small presentation for us. What a night! Let Carnival starts soon!

Come to Rio & Learn and take part in our RioLIVE! Activities.
