The Samba School
Escola de Samba Fusion is the dance school division of Samba Fusion Inc, the lower mainland’s premier Brazilian Samba performance group. Our classes are taught by Halie Scaletta under the creative direction of our founder, Carine Fortunato. Our lessons and message stress that samba is not just a dance or a bikini show, it is a calling. Samba has a rich history that comes from the black people of Brazil and is a part of a culture that is owed respect, reverence, and grace. We learn our samba directly from our mentors in Brazil, and try to deliver the message of samba as authentically to our students, professionals, and professional clients as best as we can.
