‘Enough of being bossed around by men’: Brazil’s first all-women samba school dances to its own beat
The sexism, stereotypes and sniggering don’t deter the members of TPM as they prepare to compete in Rio’s carnival

Preparations for Brazil’s carnival are in full swing in Madureira, a neighbourhood in Rio de Janeiro famed for its strong samba tradition. In a courtyard strewn with colourful paper and fabric scraps, a handful of women are working on costumes.
The mostly middle-aged black women snipping, gluing and painting belong to one of Rio’s newest samba schools: Turma da Paz de Madureira (TPM), or the Madureira Group of Peace. All of its members, from the directors down to the percussionists and dancers, are women.
“We are the only all-female samba school in Brazil,” says Barbara Rigaud, TPM’s president and founder.
Women have always been closely involved in Rio’s samba schools, not just as tailors and sparkly samba muses but also as musicians and participants in the creative process. Yet rarely have they occupied positions of power, or had their contributions to these community based musical organisations recognised. The pioneer sambista Dona Ivone Lara famously had to let male relatives sign her compositions for years before she became, in 1965, the first woman to be accepted as a composer in a samba school, the Madureira-based Império Serrano.
“There was a constant presence of women in these spaces, they participated actively, and not just as hypersexualised [dancers],” says the historian Alessandra Tavares, highlighting the objectification of (usually black) women that has long dominated stereotypes of Rio’s carnival. “History never gave women the visibility they were due.”
Rigaud is striving to change that. “Enough of being bossed around by men,” says the 55-year-old, who runs a beauty salon when she isn’t putting her heart and soul into carnival productions.
