Viver Brasil Dance

Viver Brasil Dance Company, founded in Los Angeles by Artistic Director Linda Yudin and Co-Director/Choreographer/Musician Luiz Badaró, is rooted in the traditional and contemporary forms and techniques of Salvador, Bahia and Brazil, and embodies the beautiful and complex stories of the orixá, sacred energies of Afro-Brazilian culture. Viver Brasil produces dance concerts, works with community organizations and sponsors educational programs. In the next five years, VB hopes to be a full-time dance company performing locally, nationally and internationally as well as to have its own dance studio and cultural center.
