Peito Vazio (Mestre Charm)

Peito Vazio (Mestre Charm)


Eu sinto um vazio no peito

Berimbau vem me ajudar

Vem, vem, vem

Berimbau vem me ajudar



Sinto um vazio no peito

Berimbau vem me ajudar

Vem, vem, vem

Berimbau vem me ajudar


Eu sinto saudades de um tempo

Que o berimbau me levou

Agora eu levo ele

pros lugares onde eu vou



Existem milhões de estrelas

Mas a minha eu encontrei

Fica no brilho do aço

Do berimbau que eu toquei



Berimbau deu um pulo no tempo

Me encontrou nas profundezas

Me deu toda harmonia

no canto da capoeira



Pensamento invade o passado

Me deixa acordado

para sempre lembrar

O jogo da capoeira

Que acalma o meu corpo

e me faz respirar

Vem Cá- Mestre Toni Vargas

Capoeira is the best sport to fully develop a kid in all ways.

Doing capoeira your kid will learn a martial art through game-like activities, acrobatics, dance and also play musical rythms and sing. Capoeira is a sport that develops coordination, muscular resistance, elasticity and speed but as it is a game and not a competition capoeira for kids develops also the sense of following rules, cooperation and notion of space and timing.

Bring your son and daughter to have fun and spend all their energy learning a cultural sport!

New Venue

Hello everyone,

In order to expand, we moved the classes to the centre of Manly, 3 times a week now!

Special thanks to Stralinho for the trust! Wish you a good trip and count with us wherever you go.
Hope to see you all soon.

Axé,
Chula

Capoeira in Harmony Day

IT WAS GREAT!

A really pleasant afternoon celebatring the harmony of the people, just like capoeira.

Thanks for Contra-mestre Borracha, Instrutor Bruno, Raffi and Panameño, thanks Isabel and Luciane from Crows Nest Community Centre.

Capoeira was created from the ability of the slaves in creating harmony even in the worst condition ever possible for a human. To survive and preserve their culture, they exchanged their different customs, giving bith to capoeira. To fight for freedom they united in harmony.

Hope everyone enjoyed our contribution to the event and the energy.

Axé!

Next Aberre Capoeira Exhibition

Nothing better to celebrate the Multicultural Day than a capoeira exhibition!

Capoeira is an art-form created and developed in Brazil by different ethnical groups brought from Africa to be slaves. Also some native indigenous and even european features were added on it along the centuries!

It involves dance, martial art, acrobatics and music. The mix of these different features generates an unique energy that makes its pactitioner overcome physical and spiritual limits.

Capoeira is a living proof that multiculturality can bring forth a positive development from a democratic society!

Come and enjoy!!!
