In this Aug. 3, 2013 photo, a boy jumps in the air and grabs his foot while practicing a step from a dance form called "passinho," or "little step," at a makeshift dance studio in the Borel favela, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Passinho is a mix of sambaesque footwork, breakdance handstands, free spins and athletic acrobatics, all set to a music heavy on funk hooks laid over snare beats.
