Abstract

This project proposes a research about the dances and movements of Baianas from samba's schools. In order to it will be used the BPI method (Dancer-Researcher-Interpreter). Based on this method it will be done "Pesquisas de Campo" in samba schools localized in the city of Jundiai. In these research, the Baianas' movements and the contexts in which they occur will be investigated and registered on "vivência de campo" diary. This movements and their directions will be studied and experienced in directed labs, in which will be performed concomitantly to the "atividade de campo". From those procedures and data's analysis obtained we intend to find a body synthesis and a written synthesis of the research carried out.
