Valmir das Biribas, is a craftsman / capoeira installed in Salvador de Bahia and specialized in the manufacture of berimbau for more than 30 years (his father was already doing this job). He goes to look for his wood in true biriba in the forest of the island opposite (Itaparica) and then makes his berimbaus in his workshop. They provided many practitioners around the world.
 
Our berimbaus are delivered disarmed (relaxed) for a better longevity and to avoid the breakage during the transport. Unless exception (some schools), it is advisable to disarm its berimbau after each use.
