 long story, going to try to make it short.

Most of you know me from the Pipeline Club in Newark, NJ. Some of you from school, very few others from a tiny town called Adrao, but among you there are Capoeiristas, the first one being Mestre Cigano, Robson andre ribeiro vieira. He is a person that dedicated his life to bringing Capoeira to the masses because he saw a healing process in it for humanity. It stabelizes power struggles, It stabilizes ego, it stabilizes arrogance. What does it give you?- endless qualities and capabilities, music, song, dance: elasticity, acrobatics, evasiveness in the body and most important a smile.

    He has taught and performed Capoeira to mentally challenge, wheel- chair bound, special needs children; has performed Capoeira for the armed forces, schools, churches, hospitals, and fundraising events.      

He became my teacher in 1991-92 and I have experienced his kindness, gentleness, and love, carried within power, compassion. The fundraiser is for medical bills. The amount is voluntary and if you just want to support by being there that's fine too. If you have a question or just want to say something reach out to me. See you later.
