Our elderly residents are dancing the quadrilha at the CTN festival

Our elderly members from the FBB enjoyed an unforgettable day at the CTN (Centre for Northeastern Traditions) on Saturday, 12 July. They were invited to take part in a major event organised by the centre, and a group of senior citizens from our CCI (Community Centre for the Elderly) accepted the invitation.

The group performed a quadrilha dance, the choreography for which was inspired by the popular culture of north-eastern Brazil and created and rehearsed by Karina Mattos, our rhythm and gymnastics teacher. They performed with great enthusiasm, delighting the audience. “The CTN team provided all the necessary support to our group.” “It was wonderful to see the pride on every participant’s face,” said Ana Rodrigues, the Foundation’s project coordinator.
