Samba is one of Brazil's most popular music and dance styles. In many ways, it is a symbol of the country itself. In the worlds of one of modern samba's main artists, Seu Jorge: “Samba is our truth, our peculiarity … and our flag”. When people today hear the word samba, they often think of the festival of Carnaval and the city of Rio de Janeiro. But there are many different types of samba, and these styles differ throughout Brazil.
Today, one of the most popular types of samba comes from Bahia, a state in the eastern part of the country. It’s called samba reggae. From the 16th to 18th centuries, over three million Africans were brought to Brazil to work as slaves. Samba from this region of Brazil is heavily influenced by African rhythms. Modern samba reggae is a combination of Rio samba, African drumbeats, and Jamaican reggae. It’s a bit slower than Rio samba, and it is usually performed in large groups – sometimes with over 200 drums playing at one time!
Bahia’s most famous drumming group is Olodum. Many say the group invented the samba reggae sound. But Olodum is not only a musical group. Its members also created local organizations to help young people and the poor. Every year, in the city of Salvador in Bahia, the lively sound of samba reggae fills the streets during Carnaval – one of the world’s greatest parties.

Time management is a critical skill that can help us achieve our goals and be more productive. It involves planning and organizing our time to ensure that we use it efficiently and effectively. Good time management skills can help us reduce stress, increase productivity, and achieve a better work-life balance.
One of the first steps in effective time management is prioritizing tasks based on their importance and urgency. This can involve breaking down larger tasks into smaller, more manageable ones, and setting realistic goals and deadlines for each one. By focusing on the most important and urgent tasks first, we can maximize our productivity and minimize stress.
Another key aspect of time management is avoiding distractions. In today's world, there are countless distractions that can interfere with our ability to focus and be productive, such as social media, email, and other digital devices. To avoid them, it can be helpful to set specific times to check email or social media, or even turn off notifications altogether when working on important tasks.
Finally, it's important to be flexible and adaptable in our approach to time management. No plan is foolproof, and unexpected events or emergencies can arise at any time. By being open to changes in our schedule and adjusting our priorities as needed, we can better manage our time and reduce stress.
