THE PERSON BEHIND THE BRAND

MEET LIANI DEVITO

The Woman Behind Samba de Rainha


Originally from Santos, São Paulo, Brazil, Liani Devito is a Brazilian samba dancer, performer and educator who has been sharing her passion for samba in London for over a decade.


A resident Brazilian Samba instructor at Pineapple Dance Studios since 2021, Liani brings together authentic Brazilian samba traditions, technical precision, musicality and expression to help students develop their own style and confidence.


A passista at Acadêmicos do Salgueiro in Rio de Janeiro, Liani returns to Brazil regularly to train, parade and remain connected to the heart of samba culture.


She is also the founder and President of Império da Rainha, London's female-led, award-winning Brazilian samba school and two-time winner of Best Brazilian Band at Notting Hill Carnival (2025 and 2026).


For Liani, samba is more than dance. It is culture, identity, freedom, expression and community.
