To all women in Capoeira Angola ,
The annual “Easter Capoeira Angola Meeting, 17.04.- 21.04.2014. in Berlin will be Berlin 's first Capoeira Angola Women Meeting,
Best regards,
Academia Jangada is proud to announce that the following Capoeira event we will be holding in Berlin to celebrate women in the art we all know and love, CAPOEIRA!
The annual “Easter Capoeira Angola Meeting, 17.04.- 21.04.2014. in Berlin will be Berlin 's first Capoeira Angola Women Meeting,
Participation of women in Capoeira Angola began to a broad extend in the 1980s.
To this day there are relatively few Mestras who are actually teatching. This has resulted in a lack of female trainers who can teach with experience and importantly act as a female role model and example for gender equality for younger women in Capoeira.
So far the theme of equal opportunities for women within the Capoeira-Angola-World has found little attention. This we would like to change with our Capoeira Angola Women Meeting.
There will be Capoeira Angola and Capoeira Music classes and Rodas, as well as classes in other types of dance: African Dance, Samba, Street Dance and Aerial Yoga Classes hold by Women only - open to everybody - men are especially invited and we will look forward to welcoming everybody who attends!
The execution of such a huge event takes careful planning. We will be inviting female Capoeira Angola Masters/CM from Brazil . Their names and the program will be announced in due course.
We would also be very grateful to hear from women who teach Capoeira Angola in Europe who would be interested in presenting their work at the event - mestres, contramestres and trenels.
Please contact me as soon as possible if you are interested in collaborating with us: susyangoleira@hotmail.com.
Please contact me as soon as possible if you are interested in collaborating with us: susyangoleira@hotmail.com.
We will alsocelebrate International Woman's Day by holding an Open Roda on Saturday 08.03.2014 at 5 pm, in the new Academia Jangada inside of the Kulturbrauerei.
So, ladies please mark these dates in your diaries. We look forward to welcoming you in Berlin and you shall of course get a further email from me when the details of the workshop for women in March have been finalized.
Best regards,

The final event of the British Dance and the African Diaspora Research Project, British dance Black routes open space event on January 16 - South Bank, Royal Festival Hall, Level 5. 11am to 5pm, 10.30am registration is booking well. This is a free event but must be pre-booked.
Booking for this event is available from http://store.dmu.ac.uk/browse/extra_info.asp?compid=1&modid=1&deptid=5&catid=74&prodid=2027
for more information about the project go to: http://www.dmu.ac.uk/bdad
There are a limited number of places so if you would like a place please book now. At this we will present our key findings from the project and invite the community of dance artists and other members of the sector to reflect on how this research might be useful and contribute to creating future opportunities.
This event is the culmination of a research process which gathered material during Roadshows held in Leeds, Liverpool and Birmingham. During these events memories of Black British dancers who were involved with dance from the 1970s onwards were explored. We are investigating the past legacies and contributions to new vocabularies and current artistic practices.
One of our aims is to acknowledge the significance of the contribution of Black British dance artists to dance history and to today’s dance culture. In our exhibition British dance Black routes at the International Slavery Museum, Liverpool we highlight the diversity of dance styles and the rich contribution of the many artists featured in it bringing together a range of thematically organised material on rhythm, community and spirituality.
We do hope you will help us to create what promises to be a stimulating and informative day.
