The Capoeira Porto da Barra Group (GCPB), created in 1994 by Mestre Cabeludo, follows the line of Capoeira Regional Tradicional, seeking to follow the foundations of this art-fight and the teachings of its creator, Mestre Bimba (Manoel dos Reis Machado).
The Group is internationally recognized for its strength and importance for the perpetuation of this traditional cultural expression. With the mission of preserving the historical, cultural elements and rituals existing in regional capoeira, Porto da Barra perpetuates this traditional cultural expression and the teaching methods of Mestre Bimba.
