Review for Abada-Capoeira Dc Brazilian Arts Center Inc, Gaithersburg, MD, USA
My son and daughter both studied capoeira through this program and we are infinitely impressed. My son stayed with the program for many years and it was immensely helpful for his physical development and his sense of self. He also learned some Portuguese and absorbed the complex rhythms and techniques of the music. We all felt part of the Abada Capoeira community. Professora Yara is the centerpiece, an awe-inspiring world champion in capoeira but also a cultural ambassador with a Master's degree in sports psychology and a magnetic personality. She knows exactly how to motivate children and encourage their best efforts. And, she brings people together in support of the broader community's well-being. A great non-profit!
