Raízes em Movimento is a project that encourages safe and respectful spaces for all to belong through popular dances and theater games. Mental and physical health are promoted through embracing one’s roots.
Raízes em Movimento celebrates the Brazilian contribution to popular dances while connecting each individual with their own ancestral roots and collective spirit.
The program is aimed towards socially vulnerable groups, particularly young people with intellectual disabilities. It is a respectful recovery of each individual’s history and origins, empowering them to express themselves and connect with their heritage through dance.
