capoeira angola israel
Grupo de Capoeira Semente do Jogo de Angola Israel are doing the
fifth annual gathering with Mestre Jogo de Dentro
…a week of capoeira angola, with workshops, music classes, rodas, samba de roda and more
“this year we’re dedicating the event to Mestre Joao pequeno who passed away last December.
Mestre Joao Pequeno, disciple of Mestre Pastinha and teacher of our own Mestre Jogo de Dentro,
is a key figure in modern history of Capoeira Angola, a man who dedicated his life to preserve, teach and keep alive
the rich tradition of Capoeira Angola.”

Capoeira Angola Israel
the Capoeira Angola center operates in Haifa city since 2007
apart from its main activities revolving capoeira, we also conduct cultural events from all sorts.
this time we have chosen to have a Group Art exhibition,
with Capoeira lyrics as its theme.
from all of the Capoeira’s components, one might say that music is the soul of the art.
it is the music that connects the practitioners to a common experience out of the ordinary
with the songs the character of each moment born in the Roda, traditional Capoeira ring, is amplified
each artist has chosen a song as a reference
and the paintings are made on Cabasas
(gourd used for the berimbau -the capoeira instrument)
opening night will take place at the Capoeira Angola center, Haifa
