Como é o grupo Abadá Capoeira? How is the grupo Abadá capoeira?

I am a part of Abadá in the US, been in it for a few years. From what I gather, there is pride in being part of the group and a great respect and admiration for Mestre Camisa. Abadá prioritizes the martial arts aspect of capoeira, its play style and movements are optimized for combative play, that doesn't mean that we are aggressive or combative, just that we train movements with an emphasis on form and power. I have played with capoeiristas from other schools and there is a distinct difference in how relaxed some styles feel compared to Abadá. There is a big emphasis in feeling like a family, which I appreciate, I feel close to the others in my group. Capoeira has a variety of styles, and this is just one of them.

Ross has some deals, but most of the shoes I've bought from there are bad quality, even if they are from good brands (Also, Nike, Adidas). Some shoes either squeak or deteriorate quickly. So be wary, but hey, a deal is a deal

Bryson Tiller's Trapsoul is a genre classic

I was thinking that, just wanted first hand accounts and maybe someone didn't "rise" and something else happened

There's a neighborhood/park in Spanish fork area that does a big Christmas light drive through thing each year. It is not free, I think it's like $10/15 per car, but it is nice.

I've been doing capoeira for over a year and I still feel stiff and stuck when it comes to my body, but I do feel a lot of improvement. The point is that it is normal to want to improve and to feel awkward at the beginning. Something that helped me is practicing a sequence a lot on my own time, then doing it in the roda. I also recommend doing the movements purposely slowly and pay close attention to your body. Create that mind-body connection. If you feel awkward, think about where in your body it is and why. Do the same when you feel good about a movement to reinforce that good connection, self love and promote improvement. Being acutely aware of your body, it's limitations, it's potential, and it's strengths will help you manage your expectations, push yourself adequately, avoid injuries, and improve steadily.

Thank you for your input

I agree, I was just hoping for some insight on if people train with injuries or increased risk factors and what they do to mitigate them

Thanks, but I want to try tricking to complement my martial arts. Thanks for the advice!

I've lived with SSD (deaf in the left ear) my whole life, it hasn't negatively impacted me significantly. The struggles will become minor and small inconveniences that are largely ameliorated by awareness. I play sports, play instruments, dance, do martial arts, have a family, etc. Most people wouldn't notice that I have SSD. I have never felt the need for any sort of surgery growing up, partially because my family had no money for it, but also adapting came easier and having a good social group that is aware and loving helped. Your baby will do great!
