At Brighton School of Samba, our dancer roles uphold Brazilian samba tradition respectfully within a UK community-based context, supporting rhythm, musicality, and collective joy while honouring Afro-Brazilian cultural roots. We aim to be clear about what these roles mean, how they work together, and how people are invited into them, recognising that samba is strongest when it is inclusive, respectful, and grounded in shared learning.
