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.
