Founded in 1975 by Jelon Vieira, and with the assistance of the late Alvin Ailey, DanceBrazil undertook the goal of spreading an Afro-Brazilian cultural message through its performances and educational activities.

The company fuses traditional Afro-Brazilian movements and rhythms with modern dance. DanceBrazil is an electrifying example of the globalization of dance. It offers the best of traditional and contemporary Afro-Brazilian dance, including the sensational martial arts form of capoeira.

Within a few years of its inception, DanceBrazil performed at the prestigious Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Hall in New York City. They now tour throughout the United States, Asia and Europe.

When not on tour, Vieira and his 20 dancers are at home in Brazil teaching children and young adults, building their self-esteem, and instilling in them self-discipline to raise social consciousness so that the youth become a vital part of their own communities.
