Friday July 24,2009

The Club is looking forward to having us perform  to help complete the ambiance of their Brazilian theme.

We confirmed 10 – 15 people to perform on Friday, July 24.

We are playing the “background” music and doing two 20-30 minute shows.

The event starts at 5:30. I have scheduled the shows for 6 during cocktail hour and 8 pm. during dinner hour.

There is a large stairway down to the pool area where they have tables set up for dinner. They would like us to be standing and/or sitting on the steps between shows, playing the instruments. I’m not exactly sure how this will play out since we have never done quite this kind of arrangement for our demos. but I know it will all work out and they will LOVE us!!!

We will be performing at the Club’s annual picnic at the Conestoga House.

This event is held from 5:30 p.m. until almost dark on Friday, July 24.

Looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible at this event.

Sincerely,

Mae, Kids Capoeira Instructor

There will be class tonight Wednesday July 22, 2009 from 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm. There will not be class from 6:30 - 8:30 since we have many students heading to Philly for an open roda at Mestre Doutors. If anyone is interested in going to Philly, you should call Carlos. I am not sure how much room they have in cars, if any.

Thursday night, class will be at normal time (6:30 - 7:30) however, Carlos will NOT be teaching. We will have a higher cord student teaching.

If anyone notices emails that are incorrect or you know someone who is not getting our email updates, please let me know. Also, I will be posting information on our facebook page. Check it out at facebook : Cordão de Ouro Capoeira - Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

Thanks!

I just want to say thank you to Brenda for getting me and Mia involved in Capoeira.  Thank you to Julia and Carlos for helping us get hooked on the incredible workouts.  Thank you to Mae for helping me learn something new every day, and to all my other CDO friends….thank you for letting me be a part of your world.  I may not be the best capoeirista but what I lack in form, stamina, and ability, I try to make up for in heart, and admiration for all of you who truly kick butt!

Axe!
