This Friday @ 7pm in the Darwin TV room - free. It is not a big room so please register here, otherwise we cannot warranty a sit. All Capoeiristas are more than welcome, non-Capoeiristas welcome as well! The more diverse we are, the more enriching the experience will be! 

This film is a documentary that illustrates perfectly where capoeira comes from and which role it can play in some societies. See the trailer here.

2 - Berimbau workshop this saturday. 

After the training we will take some time to learn how to maintain your berimbau (and the dos and donts). Bring the following tools, otherwise you cannot practice which is the important bit.

- 1 Lineman's pliers (US English), also called combination plier (2 is much better)

- steel wire of 1mm (can be 0.9mm) - (called piano wire as well) You can buy a packet of 100grams (several meters) for 3-5pounds. At least bring 2m.

- steel file - rather small if possible.

- Linseed oil (optional)

- your berimbau if you have one - come even if you have not one!
