Dance Styles - Bossa Nova (Street Latin)


About Bossa Nova

Bossa Nova is a Brazilian dance style, which is danced with predominantly straight legs and a wave-like upper body motion.

The classic song for Bossa Nova is
The Girl from Ipanema. Bossa Nova means “new wave” or “new trend”.

Please note that the Bossa Nova we teach at BoogieCamp has nothing to do with the "Bosa Nova line dance" or the "Bossa Nova Blues" dance style.
