Početna

  • "It’s easy to love samba because it offers so much, and the only thing it asks of you is to start dancing and have a good time!"
  • "Once you start dancing samba, you cannot stop. It’s so contagious! It’s so easy and carefree it will disarm you!"
  • "For me, samba is a way of life, a worldview. Whatever I do, I always try and bring in the good energy that is at the core of this dance!"
  • "It’s a moment of magic, adrenaline and emotion. When I dance, I feel fantastic. It’s so much bigger than me, I only know it’s glorious!"

Anny Alves

Anny is a Brazilian born in Salvador, the city said to be the birthplace of samba. At 18 she started going to dance classes, learning samba from the most famous choreographers, but samba has been in her blood from a very young age. Through diligent training, she has built firm foundations, and today she is an accomplished samba dancer and instructor. At the age of 20, she went to travel Europe with a troupe of dancers. Since 2009 she has lived in different European cities, regularly taking part in tours by various samba dance troupes, but several years ago she settled in Croatia. In 2014 she became the cover face of the OBN TV station where she has a samba school show. She visits Brazil at least twice a year not only to perfect her samba skills in Rio de Janeiro, but also to see her family and friends. In her free time, besides dancing and teaching samba, she also goes to ballet classes.

Story of Samba

Samba is a combination of music and dance with roots reaching back to Africa. It was formulated in Brazil in the 16th century, and today it is considered one of Brazil’s major cultural manifestations. The name samba comes from the root of “samba”, literally a sideways movement, but in its modern form samba means to be joyous, make jokes, jump with joy, convey and receive good energy. Samba first appeared in Europe in 1924, but its simplified form did not start to spread before 1948. Since then, it has gathered a growing number of fans, winning everyone over with its ease, serenity and joyfulness.
