"I first started capoeira to try something different. I saw a few youtube videos and thought I’m going to be hopeless at this but if i commit to it for a while I might get something out of it.At first I found the classes a great way to exercise, they built strength, flexibility and coordination that helped me improve in other sports like soccer. They were fun, enjoyable and a great way to meet new people.
After a while I discovered there was so much more to the practice of capoeira. It open my perspective on life helping me find the joy in finding new challenges and giving me the confidence to take them head on.
I would recommend capoeira to anyone looking for a fun way to get fit and meet new people. You’ll learn different ways to express yourself and if you open yourself up you’ll discover things about yourself that you didn’t know you had.
I’d like to thank Cipo for his work and for showing me something truly beautiful." - Nick Gellatley
"Since quite a long time, I have always wanted to start capoeira in France. For some reason I actually never started to be part of a group in my country.The year 2013 marked a new step in my life, when I decided to come over to Australia. In September 2013, I joint Abada Melbourne, one of the best decision I have made so far. At first, I felt like “how am I gonna do this?”. As an old gymnast, I realized that I would need to get flexible and fit again. There’s no luck for it, you need to train! Perseverance, self confidence and concentration are the keys. The best memory I have from capoeira is my batizado in Sydney last December. It was an emotional and fantastic week that I’ll never forget, even with a broken toe!
When I play I feel relieved, full of energy and I my mind is focus. It helped me calming down sometimes.
Even though I had ups and downs because at some point I felt sometimes lonely in Oz, I know that I always had my capoeira family. I met extraordinary people, and I have them in my heart for ever. Also, Aymeric Legros is a special person for me who gave me his passion for capoeira and pushes me a lot.
Back in France in few months, I’m going to continue playing, and I’ll come back to Melbourne to visit Abada and play!" - Camille Bella Nascita
"I discovered Capoeira completely by accident. At the time I was going to the gym with a PT to keep fit. I had a vague idea what it was about and everything I knew, I liked.
It only took two classes before I knew I’d be doing this for years. What started as a way to keep fit became a lifestyle. I had discovered an old culture. A serious discipline. A beautiful art.
Over time I learned new things about the world and about myself. I am constantly reminded to have respect and humility. I have a sense of belonging with my group. We are a family. A huge family.
We are Abada Capoeira. You are welcome." - Trevor J Taiaroa
