We Honour Yemanja at Ventana Fiesta FRANKSTON – SAT March 12th Once again, in a Beachside Ceremony & Offering at Frankston Beach followed by the Ventana Latin Festival Street Parade. In Brazil, Yemanja is celebrated each year on February 2nd. Ventana Latin Festival is in it’s 10th Year and Mestre Val has been very dedicated to continuing to grow it, supporting the Organisers and presenting Capoeira & Brazilian Culture and stories for the City of Frankston & the visiting community. Nowhere else in Australia, does the Afro-Brazilian culture of Honouring the Orisha exist in a Festival Program.
Batizado time :) THIS YEAR will be Mestre Val’s 22nd Batizado event, so let’s do this :) !!
Batizado Event time, is the Capoeira students’ opportunity to, re-commit to their Capoeira training, meet more of the Capoeira Community from the wider World, an opportunity to participate in the ritual of Grading & being recognised for the training & the things you have learned since last year! :)
For some, its a time to learn new things that they haven’t been exposed to, for others it’s a time to reconnect with old friends or old teachers, remembering what already has been and it’s also a time share your own wisdom and catch up on things we may have forgotten you know!
