In this Aug. 10, 2013 photo, a young man balances his cap on his nose, a common "passinho," or "little step" move in front of friends at a makeshift dance studio in the Borel favela, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Passinho is a free-form style of dance that is catching on with young people all over the city. The dance borrows from various influences, including samba movements, break dance handstands, and is set to pounding beats on top of soulful hooks.
