Another popular dance comes from Belém, at the border of Eastern Amazon; the now world-famous "Lambada". The dance - voluptuous, sensual and downright carnal - is a life-size reflection of one of the strongest aspects of Brazilian culture, one that can be found throughout the giant country: the lust for love.

MACULELE
Maculele, a stick and machete dance created by African slaves working on Brazilian sugarcane plantations. Maculele, originated from Africa, is mainly practiced in the north-eastern part of Brazil. It is part of certain most popular festivities, accompanying the period of harvest. Similar to Capoeira, also in this dance the performers use two pieces of wood, beating them together, following the rhythm of the atabaques (congas), while the movements of their bodies keep flowing. Until recently, Maculele and Capoeira were performed separately, but more and more they are both found during the same festivities.
