Congratulations Mestre Efraim! Shots from his batizado in New Haven, CT (USA) on 4/14/07 with his school Grupo Raca Em Movimento. A really great Batizado, there was really good Axe there.
Rutgers Capoeira Club Batizado 04/22/07 with Professor Maranhao. Great Batizado, lots of energy, I loved it. A special thanks to the big haired girl who stood in front of my camera. There were alot of great games, most of them I filmed you can't see because the hair was in the way.
This was a really great roda, a day to pay tribute to Mestre Glauber who now teaches out of NJ (USA). Mestre Efraim and a few others put it on, it was a day of great Axe, great games, and alot of great feeling. The event was held in New Haven (1/13/08), CT at Mestre Efraim place see www.usacapoeira.com
Wow, I really got a new found respect for this nations oppressed billionaires. This was shot on March 24, 2007 at a peace march in Boston organized by www.march24.org The sound got a little squishy at times, and the camera abit disoriented, but I think it was just being around all that power.
The group NashuaPeace.org has protest outside Hillary Clinton Fund Raiser in Nashua NH on March 10, 2007. Hillary's stand on the war isn't that far from Bush's. As lives are being wasted as politician posture to differentiate themselves, at least this group is trying to be heard. If you want to win the election, don't defy the will of the MAJORITY.
These folks are out here in sub-zero weather trying to make a difference, not staying quiet, letting it be known that we are not happy. Election season in New Hampshire is coming.. I would love if they showed up for some face time!
Ginga Brasileira Dance Company - (Mestre(s) Efraim, Glauber, and CM Pinga Fogo) give a knockout performance of Maculele, Capoeira, and Samba. A really talented Pandeiro performance backs it all. The performance was in New Haven, CT 04/20/08
