meet your teachers
We are thrilled to announce exceptional dancers to teach: Edmilson Botelho from Portugal who seems to have already danced before he learnt to walk, Annette Kühnle from Germany, one of the most creative and experienced Blues dance teachers in Europe and finally Luisa Barros from Porto who, after a long journey through all kinds of dance styles, 10 years ago discovered her true love: the blues. Thinking of this dream team we already feel a bright smile melting on our faces …
Siamo entusiasti di annunciare l’insegnamento di ballerini eccezionali: Edmilson Botelho dal Portogallo, che sembra aver già ballato prima di imparare a camminare, Annette Kühnle dalla Germania, una delle insegnanti di danza blues più creative ed esperte d’Europa e infine Luisa Barros da Porto che, dopo un lungo viaggio attraverso tutti i tipi di stili di danza, 10 anni fa ha scoperto il suo vero amore: il blues. Pensando a questo dream team sentiamo già un sorriso luminoso sciogliersi sui nostri volti…
Registration & Locations

Levels
We have two levels, both will include at least 6 hours of classes (partnered and solo). You may register as lead or follow, we will try our best to provide a good balance between lead and follow.
- beginner/intermediate: you have danced at least for one year, are familiar with the basics of blues dance and music. You are looking for more variations and flow in your dance.
- intermediate/advanced: you started blues dancing at least 2-3 years ago and travelled to some festivals. Your body responds to different styles of blues, you want to dive deeper into details of style and find your own groove.

Genova – Blues at the seaside
Never been to Genova? Always thought, if any, it was an industrial town, ugly harbour, good enough to quickly hop on the ferry boat to Sardinia or Corsica? Ok, va bene, ciao ciao … but wait!

It was one of these ideas that pop up at the bar, grow somehow bigger and bigger and finally become something you have never imagined … the first Sundown Blues Fest was simply magic. In the end we were completely exhausted but existed and promised: We’ll do it again. Sooooo, beautiful Bluesers … here we are with the second edition!
