Rodson de Jesus: An Amazing Dancer and Dance Instructor

Rodson de Jesus

If you are looking for a fabulous (yes, fabulous) dance class, you must try Rodson's class on Tuesdays or Sundays at Casa de Cultura in Berkeley. He is an exceptional dancer, amazing teacher, and San Francisco's Carnaval King.



If you are still not convinced, let me tell you about Rodson. He is a Brazilian native who has performed and taught all over the world. A former Balé Folclórico da Bahia and Dance Brazil dancer, he is known for his energy and talent. The man can really dance!

Rodson's classes are fun, lively, and a great workout. Carefully, he breaks down the steps and guides students through various moves while playing Brazilian songs by some of my favorite artist.

Whenever I attend his class, I am always impressed by his attention to details and caring personality. For instance, after showing a move, he guides students through the same move before adding on the next step. It's odd to say but his teaching style puts me at ease, so I end up really enjoying myself and getting a great workout.

Here is a beautiful performance from Balé Folclórico da Bahia

Beijos and enjoy your week!
