Passos Alegres

We teach & perform Capoeira Regional, Afro-Brazilian dance, & Batucada Although officially established in 2012, Passos Alegres' services have been functional in Lebanon since 2009 through Filhos de Bimba Escola de Capoeira (FBEC) in Lebanon. FBEC- Lebanon works under the supervision of and close collaboration with the mother entity in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil to provide Capoeira Regional classes. Professors & Students of the school have been performing across the country showcasing Capoeira and other Afro-Brazilian dance manifestations and continue to do so today under Passos Alegres. Passos Alegres now collaborates with FBEC- Lebanon in teaching Capoeira Regional to Lebanese, and soon regional, students. It also teaches Batucada and various forms of Afro-Brazilian dance to students of all levels. We are currently recruiting dancers and percussionists to perform in choreographies that incorporate Capoeira, various Afro-Brazilian dances and Batucada.
