Welcome to Juliana Braga Espaço Cultural! Brazilian born Juliana Braga is a dance teacher and dancer in Amsterdam. She teaches several Brazilian dances and she is officially acknowledged by the Ministerie voor Onderwijs, Cultuur en Wetenschap in the Netherlands. With decades of experience in Brazil and abroad, Juliana has learned that the basis of all dance lies in musicality, body awareness and expression. Over the years, she has worked with organisations like CliniClowns, Roots Festival and Buitenkunst. Read more about Juliana in her biography and interview.
In 2007, Juliana Braga established the Espaço Cultural. This cosy dance school is located in the heart of Amsterdam and Juliana uses it for much more than just dance classes. In Espaço Cultural, she organises children's activities, cultural activities to support local artists, and of course parties to support Brazilian musicians.
