Rafael Wilker, a celebrated name in the forró world, will be making his highly anticipated debut in London during the Spring 2025 edition of London Forró Weekend.
With over 15 years of experience, Rafael began his dance journey in 2009 and has since mastered multiple rhythms—including samba, bolero, zouk, and tango—to enrich his expertise in forró.
A graduate of the Pé Descalço school in Brazil, Rafael progressed through every role from student to examiner, earning all of the school’s certifications as both a lead and a follow.
In 2019, he launched his solo project, Forró com o Wilker, where his technical precision, musicality, and innovative approach to movement have garnered him international acclaim.
Having taught in major cities across Brazil, the United States, Canada, Europe, Russia, and Japan, Rafael brings a wealth of experience to his teaching.
His first appearance in London promises to be an unforgettable experience.
