Sunday, July 16th, 2023 – a beautiful day to savor. Our group of kids arrived bright and early, hungry for a hearty breakfast before diving into their Capoeira training and enjoying some fun in the waters of the Rio Negro.
Under the guidance of Wilson, our ContraMestre, the kids learn the ins and outs of Capoeira—a sport that combines athleticism, rhythmic movements, discipline, and a strong set of values. After an intense 90-minute session, the little ones had a chance to splash around in the water while the older ones prepared lunch.
The training and official activities wrapped up around 1:00 PM, but it wasn’t a surprise for use that the kids continued playing well into the late afternoon. They embraced the day with boundless energy, seizing every opportunity for enjoyment and camaraderie.
Now, let’s take a look at some snapshots from the day, capturing the joy and excitement that filled the air.
