Musical Genre: ForrÓ
Forró music is a slowed-down version of the barn dance: very country. It was so out of style that it came back and is now popular again. Basically, you grab a girl (a great reason to grab women) and dance like everyone else in the room: real close rotating clockwise. Two steps out, Two steps in, then the other foot. Repeat all night.
