**Samba no Pé** invites you to immerse yourself in the lively rhythms of Rio de Janeiro. This solo samba dance style, known for its intricate footwork and energetic hip movements, will teach you essential elements such as the signature quick-quick-slow rhythm, arm and hip styling, and proper technique for enhanced posture and alignment. You'll connect your movements to the infectious beats of samba while enjoying a fantastic workout. Ideal for all skill levels, no partner or prior experience is needed—just bring your enthusiasm and comfortable shoes! Join us Thursdays from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM at 4140 Redwood Highway #8, San Rafael, CA. Please arrive 10 minutes early, and note that no floor marking shoe soles are allowed.

On the other hand, **Belly Dancing with Raja** offers a unique fusion of rhythmic belly dance artistry and the energetic benefits of aerobics. This class focuses on building core strength and enhancing balance through fluid movements layered over an athletic aerobic base. Expect core-centric power movements to tone your midsection, total body toning that includes legs, glutes, and arms, and improved functional stability, all while maintaining a heart-pumping pace. Suitable for all levels, this class promises a workout that feels like a celebration. Join us Thursdays at 5:30 PM—no prior dance experience is required; just bring your energy and willingness to move.
