Don't Miss Our Next Trip to Brazil! Capoeira
Volta ao Mundo is Planning another trip to Brazil In the beginning of
August 2008. Here is some words from people who went with us on our last trip: "Thank you again so much for having me
on the trip. I appreciate you invinting me and I was glad to be able to
hang out with everyone in the VAM crew. I had an amazing time . Anyway, I hope you guys all enjoy the pictures, and I cannot wait to see you all again -hopelly soon!!! Muito Axé
Or this student: "My trip to Brazil with Volta Ao Mundo
in 2003 was amazing! About twenty of us traveled thecountry
for three weeks and by the end of our trip, our capoeira, our portuguese,
and our appreciation for the warm people of Brazil had increased beyond
what I had thought possible.Mestre kept the trip organized, but loose,
and together we met students and mestres from academies all over Brazil.
Our days were spent among the locals, walking and taking busesaround Salvador,
Rio, Sao Paolo, Sao Jose dos Campos and Mestre's hometown of Pirassununga.
In all of these places, we were to study and learn capoeira at different
academies,where we were welcomed as friends. We did learn a lot, but we
learned even more about thefriendliness and openheartedness of Brazilians.
Our days were long as we trained, but our nightswere longer as we met
our new friends over caipirinhas. The hard core capoeiristas never sleep,
it seems. The biggest highlights were training in Mestre Lobao's hometown
and meeting his family, and meeting Mestre Rony's family and our GrandMestre
Luizao. We learned of the rich heritage of capoeira and discovered we
were now a part of it. It was a truly beautiful trip and the axe has continued
to last."
