dance group

Beija-Flor Dance Group named after a tropical humming bird, was founded in 1998 with the goal of promoting Brazilian Culture and Carnival throughout Europe and beyond through costumes, music and dance.

Since its inception Beija-Flor has been under the artistic leadership of Patricia Rezende and has performed overseas (Abu Dhabi, Madrid, Paris, Lebanon and Malta), at the best Venues in London (Dorchester Hotel, Café De Paris, Fashion Café, Sound, Havana, Bar Salsa and Loughborough Hotel), and at the greatest events in London ( "BBC Television - Children In Need", "TJ Fridays" with Chris Evans, Jimmy Pages's Charity - Scream, sponsored by Calvin Klein, International Amnesty Charity, Carnaval Del Pueblo by Noticias Latino Americana Magazine, Shepherd's Bush Empire, etc) as well as the biggest corporation parties in London such as Hewlett Packard and Bloomberg.

Many of the dances have added element of a story line, theatrical interpretation and audience participation to get a party into full swing. We also provide dance classes for fun to get all your guests in the dance floor.

With Beija-Flor you can enjoy the spirit of Carnival with Samba from Rio De Janeiro, Capoeira and Afro Rhythms from Salvador in Bahia and many other regional dances from around the country.

Our dance group consists of two to twenty five qualified dancers and performers, and we are affiliated with local Brazilian bands, drums - "baterias" and capoeiristas.

We can provide you with a three minutes promotional video (on request).
