I taken down with a Venga Chiva!

I was kicking and I got taking down with a rastera! I landed right on my butt! Ouch!

The worst moment in the Roda was a Roda on a Saturday morning, I didn't stretch, warm up, nothing!! It was terriable!! I was so stiff, hurt my back, and kept getting hit! Hahaha! NEVER AGAIN!

My Best moment in the Roda was this last Batizado. Where I hade to play 7 Mestres, Professors, Instructors etc..

I hade to play for about 20 minutes! It was amazing!

My favourite Capoeria song is "Luta e Brincadeira" It has so much energy. I always play my best when this Capoeira is playing! It's the best =]

Bem-te-vi vuô, vuô
Bem-ti-vi vuô, vuô, deixa voar
Lá lauê lauê lauê lauê
Lá lauê lauê lauê lauê
Que som
oi que arte e essa
de luta e brincadeira
Que roda
maravilhosa é essa
é o arte capoeira
Em cadá som, em cada toque, em cada ginga
tem um estilo de jogo
Em cadá som, em cada toque, em cada ginga
tem um estilo de jogo
Lauê lauê laua
Lá lauê lauê lauê lauê
Lá lauê lauê lauê lauê

I like playing a smooth game that flows, like Bangela.

Meu Instructor Reco Reco, and my other teacher Monitora Gabi.

I watch Capoeira video's, listen to Capoeira music. And I also do Brazilian Jiu Jitsu =]

I got my Capoeira nickname, because my cousin does Capoeira and his name is Mario. So I got the nick name Luigi. Together we are "The Mario Bros!"

I have been trainning Capoeira for 4 years now =]

I first started trainning Capoeira 7 years ago for about a year when I was 8, but I stopped after a year. And then I joined back when I was 11. I heard about Capoeira from my older brother. He started it, because of the movie he saw "Only The Strong". But he didn't stay in Capoeira. I did =]

There are so many reasons why I love Capoeira! It's a major stress reliever. I forget all my problems when I do, sing, play Capoeira. I think..wait, I know I wouldn't be who I am today. I wouldn't of made the friends I have. I wouldn't be alive today if it weren't for Capoeira. Capoeira es mi vida =]
