Самба-де-рода is a traditional Brazilian dance and musical form that originated from the African diaspora in Brazil. It is characterized by its lively rhythm and is often performed in a circle, where participants take turns dancing in the center. The dance incorporates elements of improvisation and is accompanied by instruments such as the berimbau, pandeiro, and atabaque. This cultural expression is closely linked to the practice of capoeira, a martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics, and music. Samba-de-roda serves as a social gathering, fostering community and cultural identity among its participants. It is celebrated for its vibrant energy and connection to Afro-Brazilian heritage.
