Houston, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/24/2013 -- Morena Flor is a multi-talented dance group that specializes in Samba, Samba Axe, Lambada, Forro, and Afro Brazilian dance. Within a year Morena Flor has become Houston’s premier Brazilian entertainment group led by Candice Poderosa and Flavinha. The group displays elegance and enthusiasm in their performances along with their florid costumes. Coming off of opening weekend for the Houston International Festival has climaxed them among the Brazilian community and beyond; “we’ve worked very hard over the past few months to showcase different styles of Brazilian dance. Brazil is more than samba and we wanted our audiences to experience what Brazil has to offer.” Morena Flor will perform the last Sunday at 1:15 of the festivities rounding it up with photo shoots and guest appearances.
