What would it happen if Mestre Pastinha received the monetary value he deserved, with all his knowledge and all his contribution to the Capoeira history? He probably wouldn’t go in such bad living conditions, sadly he got more value after he was gone.

Mestre Pastinha was one of the biggest pioneers of Capoeira in Brazil, he did many researches, including traveling all the way to Africa looking for answers.

We in the Capoeira community should not be ashamed to talk about money, wanting to make a living with what we love, to sustain our lives and families with what we dedicate so much time, energy, sweat, smiles, and sometimes tears. It should not be hard for us to make a living with Capoeira.

We, the teachers should have at least a basic understanding of financial education, what is actually a liability and asset, and much more. let’s get educated about money, so we can provide higher quality classes to our students and community, but also provide for our families with what we love doing!!

For the very first time ever in The Capoeira Experience Podcast, this is the biggest group interview I’ve done so far.

Part of the team from Capoeira Brasil Cleveland, OH, came to my June Open Roda. I had the awesome pleasure to listen to the story of my awesome friends, Tubarao (@drydenkyle), Isaiah, Furao (@meurbano), Unicornia, Pikachu (@teejcapoeira), and Tempestade (Not from Cleveland lol).

Each of them has such a great story in Capoeira, and each of them is adding such an awesome energy to this awesome art!!… We also go the chance to exchange some perspective of our Capoeira and what we like about our community, highlighting the positive of our community, we also mentioned how beautiful is to see the diversity in our Capoeira community, from ages to nationalities, we can see so much!!

It feels so good to have good friends around us, especially those that want to be around you, making you feel home, warm, and loved. Take care of your friends as much as they take care of you, love them as much as they love you and you will see the magic happen!! Much respect and love for all my friends out there!!

Today I had the pleasure to interview my good friend Sabonete, she has amazing woodwork, Capoeira, and much more, she made awsome Berimbaus from scratch (listened to her playing in the interview), we talk about her Capoeira story, and how her connection with the Orixas can to her life, we also talked about how she puts her energy into creating a beautiful craft!

Check all her work and DM her to buy some awesome material, from Berimbaus, to baquetas, to benches!! You name it!!

Wood Crafting can also translate into Capoeira, when we teach students we are teaching this beautiful craft, this beautiful art that we all love, we teach how to put movements together to create what we call the Capoeira Game!!… We are Capoeira crafters!

Have you ever imagine that Capoeira was already part of yourself?, and when you found Capoeira you felt that this was actually a reconnection?

Many of us felt that way when we started Capoeira, long after years is when we understand that connection.

On episode #91, I got the huge pleasure to interview Puma Camille (@puma) where we talk about that connection he had with Capoeira from the very beginning, where we talk about the connection beyond the physical body and objects that surround us and Capoeira, how we need to stay connected to our ancestors and how we are opening our eyes to new realities.

List to this interview and get to know for yourself the passion that Puma Camille shows us on Social Media!
