Listen to the third part of my conversation with Contramestre Mico (@capoeiragainesville) where we talk about the business side of Capoeira. Don’t want to talk about money in Capoeira, then let’s ask this, what are the expenses of a Capoeira teacher? let’s break it down: website, rent (for those that pay for space), insurance, Zoom if you still teach online, Card processor if you charge online or even in person, gas, marketing, at least $200 per month, uniform, and all this does not include if you are planning events, how can we pay for all this if we don’t talk about money?… What are your thoughts?

Listen to the second part of my conversation with Contramestre Mico (@capoeiragainesville) where we talk about the business side of Capoeira. I am not sure why talking about making money is such a taboo in society today in 2022!!! This has also affected our Capoeira community, we should not talk badly or criticize those that want to make a living out of what we love. I know, I know, everyone needs to respect the culture and everything that Capoeira means!!! What are your thoughts?

Listen to the first part of my conversation with Contramestre Mico (@capoeiragainesville) where we talk about the business side of Capoeira. The more we adapt and evolve this topic gets less taboo in our community, yes we have to respect the culture, and yes we have to respect the traditions and the rituals in Capoeira, but we also need to open up the conversation of business and making money with Capoeira. Why not make a living from what we love to do? Want to share your thoughts?

A little bit absent because we just moved to a new house, and also we have been traveling almost every weekend!!! I think I need to bring my computer with me, but who works during a Capoeira event?!!

The day I turn Mestre, I still will support my friends doesn’t matter their Capoeira level, even if they are just instructors, because I know we are friends, I know for a fact that I don’t need an invitation, even a text invitation, I will show up if I can make it!! But should I show up to an Instructor Class/Event event I have a higher title? Is that disrespectful?… What are your thoughts??

What songs do you usually sing in the roda? Just because you like them, or you carefully pay attention to the roda, to the people standing around the roda, and the energy?… Pay attention to what Inst. Albatroz (@albatrozgcb) said about that, which I totally agree with the point!!! Listen to all the awesome tips from our conversation with Inst. Alabatroz where he gave us really cool tips to create Capoeira lyrics for us to practice, the more we practice the better we can get, so you can bring those songs to your roda.

During this episode with my brother Contramestre Mico (@capoeiragainesville), we talked about how your surroundings are going to share the way you see Capoeira, we actually mentioned that someone that grew up in the city is going to have a totally different view from someone that grows up in the country. Listen how Contramestre Mico came accross this exact situation with Mestre Waldemar

Contramestre Mico started Capoeira 25 years ago and now is the head of Capoeira Massape in Gainesville, FL. www.capoeiragainesville.com

Supporting the Capoeira community also comes in the form of signing up on time, for some reason we like to sign up at the very last minute! But that also comes from our lack of good examples when we organize events, posting them with time ahead also can help to set the example. Would you register for an event with few weeks prior to it?

Have you wondered how you can come back to Capoeira after pregnancy?

In this episode, I had the pleasure to interview not just one, but two incredible professionals. Dr. Julia (@empower_physical_therapy) and Dr. Jordan A.K.A Pardal (@dr.jordanceda), where we talked about a few important keys to help during post-pregnancy, the incredible things that the human body can do and sometimes we forget to do correctly, such as breathing, especially during all the upside-down movements that we do in Capoeira and much more.

Pay attention, learn and share this information with your friends, make sure you check them out a do their courses, this is not only for Capoeira practitioners, but anyone out there doing any movement form.

This is how we like to plan for our Capoeira trips, to keep us organized, and to manage budget, time, and distance! These are the questions we ask ourselves so we can organize our ideas and execute them! All these points are connected one with another, if one of them doesn’t work that means I have to rethink to see if it can improve or just change plans! Listen to the episode and check out the details!

1- Budget:
Transportation:

• Is it Driving?
• Is it Flight?
  Event fees:
• Can I assist full event (because of work) and how much is a full event?
• Is there early bird or group pricing? Because I will register early to take advantage of this.
• Food:
  I have an average price per meal that can help me manage my money better.
  Extras:
  Can I buy extra stuff for sale at events?

2- Time:

• Do I know about this event 1 year, 6 months, 3 months, or 1 month in advance? – The more time I have to plan my travels, the better. This can determine how I can manage my time with my job and classes situation. I do not travel to events with 1 month notice time!

3- Distance:

• If events are longer than 5 hours drive I might flight
• If events are within 5 hours drive, it is also fun to drive and enjoy the drive!

See the connection? – Make sure you listen to this episode because I go through more details in it!!

Capoeira has such a powerful impact on us that we have never imagined, especially mentally. During this episode, Gimli and I talked about his experience with mental health and how Capoeira has been there to make him feel safe in an environment that can totally help us overcome anything, that feeling inside you when you just know that you are surrendered by people that can support you, is so important!

Listen and learn more, being vulnerable is totally okay, we all can talk about our mental health. Don’t let the “what they are going to think about me” thought stop you from being free and express and just let it go!!, I know is not easy, I (Caxixi) was personally there, I had my own struggles before, physically and mentally, but Capoeira was always there to lift me up!

Running a Capoeira academy is not just about stepping in front of a group of people and telling them to do some amount of armadas or a sequence you made up. It goes way beyond that: marketing, talking to people, keeping track of uniform, and like it or not, financial is an important key to run your academy and events, if you don’t know what I mean, and here we are not giving financial advice but to get some ideas. Listen to my conversation with Monitora Reba (@rebbs_3) about the organization and some of the differences between a Nonprofit and LLC, a topic that for some reason not a lot of people like to talk about in the Capoeira community.

Check out the work of Monitora Reba’s through the link: https://linktr.ee/rebbs_3
