South American nation Brazil has a culture that has rubbed off on many other countries because of its free spirit and fun loving essence. While the first thought that comes to our minds when we talk or think about Brazil is football, the Samba culture which is deep-rooted in its history, its love for sports, and its cuisine are certainly the ones attractive to anyone despite where he or she is from. With dancing being a natural attribute of the Brazilians, one routine or dance genre that has been making waves in Europe over the years is Forro.

For any dance lover watching this video, at first glance you might think that this lovely couple Valmir & Juzinha are doing a salsa routine, but they are actually performing a routine from the dance genre which is originally Brazilian and is called Forro.
