Mestre Val at Xmas BBQ 2012

Dear Community,

As I get closer to celebrating my 20 years spreading Capoeira and the Afro-Brazlian culture in Melbourne, I reflect on all the wonderful people I had the chance to meet and all of the amazing things I have accomplished.

I also humbly realize that there are many aspects that I can do better and I am taking on that challenge with great pleasure.

I am excited to reunite with many of you and look forward to strengthening & spreading my rich Afro-Brazlian roots in Melbourne.

Don’t hesitate to be in touch, come visit and bring your friends & families.

I am creating many new programs (music, dance, fitness, language) for 2013 and can’t wait to share it all with you!

Wishing you all so much Axé for this new year,

Mestre Val Boa Morte
