"Practicing Capoeira is a story of transformation. I came here with a stiff back, a limited range of motion and a mind that was often in the clouds. With time, Capoeira became more than just training my body, it helped me to connect my senses, mind and body. It helped me to gain agility and move my body in ways that I never thought I would be able to. It opened a new world of music, history of resistance and introduced me to an amazing community around the world" ~ Fabian Menges
