There might be a carnival going on in Rio de Janeiro, but children in Streatham have been putting on a show of their own after learning how to dance Brazilian style.
Youngsters were given a lesson in capoeira – a 16th century martial art, which combines dance and music.
The class was part of a Brazilian themed festival held at Streatham and Clapham Junior School on Saturday.
