learn capoeira

Well, seeing as I was unable to get into my required capstone class on campus, I decided to drop the extra physical activities class I was taking (including capoeira) to save myself the cost of tuition. However, I’ve looked up a few reviews for some places that teach it near home. I am thankful to live in a city that has about three different capoeira schools. I’ll probably save starting this up until after my Taiko performance in October, though.

The Summer is my last quarter for working on my undergrad degree. I only have one seminar class to take that I couldn’t get into during the Spring quarter. Seeing as I already have to drive to campus for the seminar course, I thought I’d sign up for a few fun classes to get me started. Lucky for me, it appears that they recently added a Beginning Capoeira course to the physical education department. I figure, this will be a good way for me to get an introduction of Capoeira for free (or at least for what I’m already paying in tuition) before I move on to anything more in depth or challenging.

The first time I saw a Capoeira roda was during a pep ralley in high school, nearly 15 years ago. Ever since that day, I’ve wanted to give it a whirl. Now, if I can only get myself to wake up early enough to get to class in time.
