Welcome to
Forró Copenhague
We are a nonprofit and “folkeoplysende” organization that organizes dance classes, workshops, socials, and concerts in Copenhagen. The dance is called forró — and so is the music we dance to. Easy enough so far, right?
What is Forró?
Forró is a joyful Brazilian partner dance with roots in Brazil’s Northeast. It’s sensual and characterized by a close embrace. The forró community is casual and welcoming. Everyone can join, regardless of experience or background.

Dance classes
We have dance classes every Friday, and you’re more than welcome to join. You don’t need dance experience, a partner, or fancy clothes. Just show up, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Workshops, dance socials and concerts
Besides our weekly classes, we also organize dance socials, concerts, and workshops with bands and teachers from abroad. In the summer, when the weather is nice, we meet up and dance in the sunshine.
