Capoeira is a Brazilian art form, which combines dance, music, and acrobatics with martial arts. Known as the secret dance of Brazil, capoeira is an astonishing display of acrobatics, breath-taking kicks and self-defense tactics performed to the music of the Berimbau (an ancient stringed bow-like instrument) and drums.  We are very fortunate to have "Aché Brasil" coming directly to our Fernwood gym this Thursday for a 9:00 am 50 minute performance.  Everyone is welcome to this school event. For a glimpse of what this exciting show is like, you can watch a short video at www.achebrasil.com.
