Additional Information

Performance title	Brazilian Rhythms
The main idea of this workshop is to share other Rhythms and dances from Brazil as Samba is already well known. The dances we select bring cultural aspects from different states and regions from Brazil like Forró, Axé, Frevo, Bumba meu boi and Samba. Some of these dances, like Forró, are present in our choreographies and express our culture and our way to celebrate. Brazilian Rhythms is a workshop for everyone!
