Audrey will be at
Rio Carnival 2024
“Good morning! I have been dancing samba for several years at the Coração do Brasil samba school in Nantes and I also play chocalho in our bateria. When I started dancing, I never imagined being able to parade during carnivals in France with our musicians and even less at the Rio carnival! And there you have it, this will be my 4th fashion show in Rio and I’m still amazed! It’s a great and wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture of Rio’s samba schools, the biggest carnival in the world, and to always rediscover this city and the madness of carnival.”

“My name is Cindy Silva Fernandes, I am 26 years old and I live in Paris. I have been practicing samba for 3 years. The cultural imprint and warmth of Samba fascinates me. I have dreamed of this trip to Brazil for several years. The opportunity presented itself with friends that I adore, I couldn’t miss this opportunity. I’m extremely looking forward to taking lessons with experts and parading at the Sambodrome.”

Rio Carnival 2024
“I’m Flavia, I’m 32 years old and I’m from Lille! All my life, since I was little, I have discovered many different dances in which I have flourished each time. But through Samba, I learned to discover much more than technique! An atmosphere, a language, a rhythm, a culture…For me, parading in the largest carnival in the world in Rio is just a magnificent consecration!
I can not wait!!!!”

Rio Carnival 2024
“My name is Laurence, I am 55 years old, I started samba in 2018 and since then I have been passionate about Brazil. In fact, I paraded twice at the Rio carnival, including once with Alessandra, and I also went with her to Bahia. I can’t wait to be there and parade again with 2 schools this time. I’ll see you soon!”
Laura will be at
Rio Carnival 2024
“My name is Laura. I have been dancing since I was very young. A few years ago, after 15 years of classical dance and other types of dance, I turned to samba, which immediately appealed to me. Having studied the Portuguese language and the Portuguese-speaking world at University, I am also a polyglot passionate about Brazilian culture. Participating in the Rio Carnival, attending it and immersing myself in carioca life during this period of carnival festivities is a dream come true.”

I met Alessandra during an internship in Quiberon… that goes back a long, long time…! and since then, has never stopped dreaming of going to Brazil and being able to parade THAT’S IT!!!! THE DREAM COME TRUE!
I can’t wait to discover the country, the people, the life, the dance and to soak up the Brazilian culture… and to dance: share the energy, the joy, the joy JORNADA LOUCA!”

Rio Carnival 2024
“I am Karen and have lived in Lille for over 5 years. A traveler at heart, I have worked in different cities in France and Europe. Throughout these journeys, dance has accompanied me: modern jazz, contemporary, hip-hop, salsa, afro beat etc. And 6 years ago I discovered Samba and since then I have devoted myself to it! I never imagined I would one day be able to parade at the Rio Sambodrome. And the dream will soon come true. Looking forward to a unique and unforgettable experience! Opaaaa!!!”

“Portuguese by origin but passionate about Brazil since I was little, I am finally going to realize my dream and cross the oceans to reach the country of my heart. I have been dancing since I was little but only started taking samba lessons a year and a half ago, since then my life has taken another turn, I feel deeply happy! Delighted to realize this adventure that is the Rio carnival with Alessandra Cabral as well as all the absolutely splendid workshops that she has concocted for us, I am counting the days that separate me from the plane that will take me to this dream. Gratidão, Amor & Axé.”

“54 years veteran in the Akoni school that I knew when she was 14! I have 16 years of amateur samba. I’m not a great dancer. I love the kindness, the warmth, their simplicity, their sense of Brazilian celebration! A 16 year dream come true… Thanks to Alessandra.
Brazil, the sun in my heart that allows me to brave worries!”
Shérazade will be at
Rio Carnival 2024
“My name is Shérazade, I am 38 years old and I live in La Rochelle. I started Samba a little over a year ago after dreaming about it for years. Every day I am a little more won over by this solar, joyful and generous dance. This trip to Rio represents a huge opportunity for me to improve my basics and learn from the best, but also to experience Carnival from the inside which, I think, will be an unforgettable experience.
