Passing by just to say - Thank You!

DILO PAULO

To be grateful is fundamental in order to be generous. This dance, created in a simple environment, with no special lights or visual effects but for the movement of my whole body, aims to be my expression of gratitude to so many people of Brazil and Angola, who have made possible the dance bridge, which is true to my heart.
