Why "RIIISCA"?
The name RIIISCA (with three “i”s!) reflects both the three organizers behind this passionate project and the vibrant energy we hope it sparks in you. From the Portuguese verb “riscar” (to scratch or mark), it captures the soul of dancers who leave their mark on the dancefloor. Come ready to create your trace through rhythm and movement!
