Gosto do Vira

The project “Gosto do Vira” (I like Vira)  has been going on for a decade, in Areosa, Viana do Castelo. The 23rd of September 2024 is the first day of its eleventh edition – first lesson of the year! The aim is to dance, dance and DANCE(!) with third and fourth graders at the local village school. Most dances taught are Portuguese, but the children also learn traditional dances from other parts of the world. Songs, visits to local historic places, learning about traditional costumes and local festivities are also part of this project. Vira is a traditional music/step in Portuguese folklore.
