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 …

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.

Sundown Blues Fest 2023

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!
