This course was a highlight as he inaugurated the cultural center Cajueiro open for less than a year by Contramestre Dorado and its students. The Cajueiro is a fruit tree found in Brazil and is discussed in many songs of capoeira ( Sinha was summoned vo / Caju ...). The work Dorado for over 6 years to bear fruit ( caju ;-)). Initially welcomed by primary school in the Derby of Eysines activity grew, the group expanded and strengthened until the opening of this place used to organize classes and events in good conditions. Two rooms to make drives simultaneously without interference, a cloakroom with shower and toilet, a bar (the Barjueiro) and decor reminiscent of Rio with the mosaics of the Copacabana promenade , the Pao de Azucar the Corcovado, which also evokes the Orixas ( Oxala, Iemanja, Omolu ).
This year Contramestre Dorado wanted to highlight the involvement of these students by giving them a distinction based on their experience and involvement in capoeira. This has resulted in a roda at the ceremony somewhat special in which everyone was invited to play with one of these meetings as guests in the video below between Mestre and Camaleao 25 (also known as the miseravao ).
