In March, 1994, SambaLá's charter was signed. Launched on the final's of the World cup in 1994, SambaLá got off to a wonderful start. And in April of 1995, SambaLá Samba School became the first samba school in the world on the World Wide Web. Since then, the phenomenal growth of SambaLá has been tremendous and is due to in part to its long history on the Internet.

But its growth is due mostly to the spirit of its members and their love for Brazil and Samba. I hope that these pages reflect this love and make your visit to our small piece of cyberspace an enjoyable one!

A samba school combines the dancing and party fun of a night club with the gathering place of a social club and the community feeling of a volunteer group. Unlike a night club, the people who show up get to know each other as a group; yet the school lacks the exclusive clubbiness of U.S. social clubs. It is a place where many different people feel comfortable entering, dancing, contributing. For example, you need not have a dancing partner to dance; it is completely common and acceptable for people to join the dancing alone or with a group or with a partner of the same sex. Because of the school's more communal nature, the gatherings, while lively, are not boisterous or destructive in any way; all members feel a sense of belonging and protectiveness.

One thing the samba school is not is an actual school; the name came about because the earliest samba groups did their practicing on school grounds.

We welcome you with open arms and happy samba to all!!
