Awesome and Amazing!

We hired Andreai and three other samba dancers for the reception of our daughter's wedding in Asheville on August 12, 2017. Wow!, is all I can say. The dancers injected life into the reception and everyone was dancing for the two hours they were there. We passed out beads, light wands, light hats, and headpieces to our guests and it looked amazing.
Thank you for an unforgettable evening!

About

BIOGRAPHY
Brazilian Fusion Dance Company is a cultural organization based in Charlotte, NC.
The Fusion Girls were the official representatives of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games in the Carolinas, performing at the Charleston US Sail “Road to Rio” event in April 16, 2016 and on NBC Charlotte during the live broadcasts of the “Rio Rally” on August 8 and 19, 2016. The group was featured at the Charlotte Observer newspaper of August 14, 2016 as one of the top Brazilian entertainment options in the region. On June 2017, the "Fusion Girls" were featured in the cover of the Hola Carolina, a magazine with a 15,000 copy distribution in the state of North Carolina. On the 24th of same month, Brazilian Fusion performed 3 sets of high-energy samba for a crowd of 4,000 people at the Hola Asheville festival.
At Brazilian Fusion Dance Company we believe that Samba is Brazil’s gift to the world. Our goal is to spread awareness of this extremely rich cultural expression, not only through dance, music, and exhilarating costumes, but also by engaging the local community and keeping alive the Brazilian way of living.
We also offer dance lessons and lectures on Carnaval and Brazilian culture.
