Tips & Warnings

  • Consider long sleeves for winter climates and short tanks for summer climates to ensure your comfort. Samba is a very "perspiring" dance.
  • Samba gear can be generic comfortable clothing, but is usually a high tank top (exposing the belly button) and low-rise yoga-type pants or high-thigh shorts, a wrap tank top and wrap skirt.
  • Choose shoes that are sturdy and able to withstand a lot of dancing activity.
