CDOB - Cordao de Ouro Capoeira Birmingham

Equipment & preparation

Workshops need a clear open space to work in. Approximately one- square metre per participant. If this is not possible we can organise the exercises so that participants take it in turns to practice; half watching from the side line, then rotating.

The floor or ground should be a hard, smooth floor of stone, concrete, wood or on short, dry grass. Carpeted floors are NOT preferable.

We like to use background Capoeira music for all our workshops; therefore we need either an electricity power point, or notice to provide our own battery power.

Participants should be prepared for a physical workout, and be wearing loose, comfortable clothing, and either trainers or go barefoot. It is advisable to have drinking water available.
