Hello camaras,

Due to the Chinese New Year, the gym will be closed from Saturday 13th until Friday 19th of February. Last class before the CNY will be on Thursday 11th and first class after the holidays will be on Saturday 20th.

Hello camaras,

Just to remind you that today, 24th of Dec. there will be capoeira class (xiexie Ma xiansheng).
Saturday 26th there will also be our usual roda, after class we can go together somewhere for dinner.
Monday 28th and Tuesday29th regular classes.
Wednesday 30th massive end of the year roda.

No class on Thursday 31st.

Saturday 2nd of January first roda of the year 5:00-6:30.

Starting from the 4th of January we will follow our regular schedule.

Considerations:

2009 has been another good year for our group. A lot of people have left Shanghai but a lot of new students have started training.We also lost our gym but found a new one, warmer and cleaner.

We had two great workshops with CM Espeto, two great months with Istrutora Bolacha and Biscoito, and a massive Batizado with Mestre Marcelo, Mestre Cabello, CM Jô and CM Carcará.

Start thinking about your goals for next batizado (Sept.2010).

Axé!

It’s from 11am to 4pm, we need a couple of people to be there at 11:00am. At 3:00pm there will be a capoeira roda so everyone should try to be there on time ok? After we will move to our gym for regular class.

Oi camaras,

Starting from September 1st 2009 our classes will take place in Wuyi Lu n.777 (map), inside Stargym, 2F. To arrive to the room you should use the stairs (not the elevator).

There is a shortcut from Zhongshan Park Subway station- Changning Lu, it’s about 10 minutes walking.

Axé!

Oi Camaras!

This Thursday there will be our last class in the gym in Zhongshan Park! We’ll do our last roda there. I would like to see everyone there for a last tribute to our beloved gym. After we might go to the Xinjiang restaurant and order the whole lamb…

This Saturday 1st of August at 5:00pm class will be in a gym near Zhongshan Park.
Address is: n.299 Xuanhua Lu (near Dingxi Lu), Bld. 4. (una tantum: it’s only for this Saturday).

Starting from Monday 3rd of August classes will take place in the gym in Kangding Lu (address and map is here).
The only difference with the old schedule will be Wednesday (we’ll start at 8:00pm instead of 8:15pm) and Saturday (we’ll start 4:30pm instead of 5:00pm).

Should you have any doubt, read again this post.
