"We hired Johana and team to perform at our son's wedding. It was a surprise performance for the bride and groom and the wedding guests and it was fantastic! They really got the guests moving and dancing and made the wedding reception even more fun. The guests couldn't resist dancing with them and the energy continued even after they were gone. Johana stayed in touch with us during the whole process and worked with us about performance details and costumes (amazing!) and really wanted to be sure that we were getting the kind of performance we wanted. The girls perform with professionalism and elegance and obviously take a lot of pride in their performances. I can't say enough good things and would highly recommend them!"

"Thank you, Johana and Tica for your performance at our school's cultural arts day event celebrating Brazil this morning. Your performance was fantastic. That you could entertain 750+ elementary school kids and make them feel included and inspired to move just speaks to your heart and talent. We couldn't have asked for better. Just amazing!"

"I was looking for 2 samba performers for my husband's birthday party and found Samba Conmigo. Johana returned my call the same day and was very patient with explaining performance details, costume and dancers choices. From talking to her, I was assured Samba Conmigo was a great choice!
On the day of the performance, Johana and Tica were amazing! They are truly professional dancers who love what they do. Their costumes were stunning (just like from Brazilian carnival). More formal banquet turned out to be a true party because guests couldn't resist dancing with girls. Their energy and smiles were contagious. Not only did the guests filled up the dance floor in minutes, but the dancers were encouraging, taking pictures and gladly posed with guests. It was so much fun!! Johana and Tica stayed with guests even longer than a contact specified and wrote wishes in a guest signing book. Such a personal approach! After the party, guests were thanking me for an incredible show and great time. Thank you Samba Conmigo for this excellent performance!! I will definitely recommend you to anybody who will needs samba performers."

Deepa P., San Jose
"Johana and her friend performed at our 25th Anniversary Party. They were amazing dancers and got the party going. They engaged with the audience and got everyone on the dance floor. It was a great performance and was highlight of the party. They stayed to take pictures with the guests as well - I would recommend them anytime."

"I've seen Johanna's dance team performances several times in the last year or so. They perform at local salsa events in the SF Bay Area quite regularly. Most recently I saw them at the SF Salsa Congress last November. Her dancers are exceptionally talented. Their costumes are really something to see. I highly recommend their colorful high energy shows."
