This dissertation regards to the mestre-sala (master of ceremony) and porta-bandeira’s (flag-bearer) authorial dance, as a couple, in samba schools of Belém, Pará, which take part in the activities of Pará Academy of Mestre-sala, Porta-bandeira and Porta-estandarte (standard-bearer), where I act as an instructor. The academy assisted me as field of study and methodological application for the research. The authorial dance is a proposal constituted from my choreographic composition process and movement research as porta-bandeira (flag-bearer), dancer and dance teacher. Thus, this research implies the analysis of the corporal investigation process as fomenter of signatures in the dance, which identify and distinguish the couples of “mestre-sala” and “porta-bandeira”, even facing the sharing of common repertoire of gesture. I use as methodology of this research ethnography, autoethnography and the number 3 in its symbolic and methodological dimensions in the arts’ research. The immanent dance is the main theoretical base adopted, because it supports my investigation about the authorial dance throughout application of the artistic dissection of the body. The body and movement’s investigation, the recognition and signature of the authorial dance made by the mestre-sala and porta-bandeira couples format the results reached with this study.
