A documentary of a unique, dramatic, and historic event in the US/Capoeira history. It is the making of possibly the first Capoeira Mestre on the East Coast of the US with a backdrop of a truly amazing batizado. The historic event is surrounded in a whirlwind of breathtaking Capoeira, Samba, Afoxe, African Drums and Dance and workshops by Mestre Quebrinha, Mestre Lobao, and of Mestre Suassuna workshops.

This review is from: The Making of a Capoeira Mestre - Capoeira Ginga Brasil-CDO (DVD)

This DVD really captures the energy and spirit of the day. From the workshops, to the performances, and the event itself, it was an amazing experience. The batizado contained Mestres from all over the U.S. and Brazil showcasing a life's work in Capoeira. Lastly the Baptism of a Professor to a Mestre was great to be a part of, something to be seen. I couldn't recommend this DVD enough!
