16 Nov Zumbimba Second Week! A Celebration of Heritage

Zumbimba honors the legacies of Mestre Bimba and Zumbi dos Palmares, two icons who defined resilience, leadership, and cultural preservation.

Why November? This month marks key dates in Afro-Brazilian history. Mestre Bimba, the father of Capoeira Regional, passed away in November, leaving a legacy of innovation and discipline. Zumbi dos Palmares, a symbol of freedom and resistance, was killed on November 20th, a date that now celebrates Afro-Brazilian consciousness.
This weekend, Zumbimba celebrations continue for cordas verde and verde e roxa. Join us in honoring their legacy through movement, music, and community.
