Thumbnail example

Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art created in Brazil by african slaves around four hundred years ago. It encompasses dance, martial arts, acrobatics, music and Brazilian culture in a single art form. Slaves, forbidden from carrying weapons, resorted to using their bodies as a fighting tool against their armed captors. They developed a series of fatal moves, cunningly used music and song to disguise their preparations to fight and eventually, they used Capoeira to gain their freedom.

Professor Fabio90

Fabio Luiz Noventa, known as Fabio90 in the capoeira world, was born in 1979, in a small town in Brazil called Valinhos. He started capoeira in Sao Paulo - Brazil when he was 7 years old, and since then, has never stopped.

Capoeira has become his passion, his life. Fabio was a member of a capoeira group called Liberdade for 9 years where he became a teacher. During this time, he traveled around Brazil participating in many Capoeira events. It was in 2001, in one of these trips that he met Mestre Demetrius, who invited him to join his group. After that, he met Master Loka, the president of CapuraGinga and he invited Fabio90 to go to Israel to give classes and workshops.

Since that time, Fabio90 also made a DVD with another teacher, named Mago, showing capoeira and acrobatic movements. He has also a participated on the 2ª CD CapuraGinga CD and the DVD "The Dance of Freedom". Today, he is starting to develop his work in Toronto - Canada and traveling around for capoeira events, classes and workshops.
