Active School Week: Capoeira

activeweek9During Active School Week, Belgrove JBS was visited by two Capoeira dance masters Kleber and Sansuo, who introduced the boys to the nuances of this dance style, a combination of modern dance and martial arts… but, that said very gentle and serene! The masters used percussion instruments to stir the passions of the boys and get a sense of rhythm into their steps. Active Archie was also present – does ANYTHING happen here without his involvement? Some brave parents also participated in our Capoeira session for the moms and dads. We had about 12 parents for a session with Kleber and Sansuo where they were put through more intense stretches. Again Active Archie seemed determined to steal the scene from the parents!
