Paraiso is the award winning samba carnival, street arts and performance group
We teach samba dance, drumming, song and carnival arts to more than 5,000 each year
We involve young people and seniors in all our activities, and help them develop their skills
We perform at carnivals, festivals and other events all over the UK and Europe
Our Brazilian artistic directors grew up in Rio's samba community and ensure our activities reflect authentic samba culture
We are an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation but we need your help to continue our work
