Years ago, as a parent at Head Over Heels, the fabulous gymnastics organization in town, I met Malandro. He has coached at HOH over the years, and was a favorite of my then 3 year old daughter. She is now 11, and Malandro is now one of the leaders in the area for teaching and playing Capoeira. In case you are not familiar with this Brazilian dance/martial arts, it is amazing to watch and clearly takes incredible strength to do. Please consider supporting Malandro and his group.
His group uses the Emeryville Senior Center for some of their events. See more info at

I am proud of the variety of groups here in Emeryville, and hope that we can learn from each other through our crafts.
