Bar Semente (Rua Evaristo da Veiga 149, Centro, Rio de Janeiro) – this nightspot has some of the best live forró music in town during the week and the weekend, and dancing is a must there. No matter what your level may be — the crowd is patient and willing to help anyone keen enough to get on the dance floor.

For those unfamiliar with this genre of music, Forró was originally from the country’s impoverished northeast regions, yet grew in popularity over time. The dance to forró is in pairs, usually a man and a woman, is fast-paced yet intimate, with a similarity to the waltz.
