Mill Valley Film Festival

Community Partnership, Mill Valley Film Festival

We’re excited to announce our partnership with the Mill Valley Film Festival this year! As part of our collaboration, we're inviting the entire capoeira community to join us in celebrating two remarkable Brazilian films that embody the spirit of resilience, identity, and passion—values that resonate deeply with our capoeira practice.

Raffle Alert!
At our next Saturday class, we’ll be raffling off two free tickets/vouchers to attend one of these inspiring films. Don’t miss your chance—be sure to attend class for a shot at winning! 😁
Let’s make it a group outing! Both films beautifully capture the essence of Brazil and are sure to move and inspire you, much like our capoeira rodas. We encourage everyone to come together, support these films, and help spread the word. They promise to be a powerful experience, not to be missed!

Lyrics to Practice

2024 Batizado Graduation Ceremony & Workshop Series - ACSF

Workshop with Mestrando Pretinho:

Learn from the master himself, the author of the song "Eu sou madeira de beriba boa." Embrace the wisdom and technique he offers as we continue to honor the roots of capoeira.

Lyrics to Practice:
Here are the full lyrics to the song "Eu sou madeira de beriba boa." Let's embrace these words as we sing and play together, strengthening our connection to the heritage of capoeira.

Coro:
Eu sou madeira de beriba boa
Eu sou beriba de bom berimbau
Eu sou cana de cana caiana
Eu sou cana de canavial

Verses:
Eu sou madeira, envergo e não me quebro
Já colocaram fogo para me queimar
Eu sou do mato, sou da natureza
Eu sou daqui, eu sou capoeira

Coro:
Eu sou madeira de beriba boa
Eu sou beriba de bom berimbau
Eu sou cana de cana caiana
Eu sou cana de canavial
Eu sou seu Bimba, eu sou da Bahia
Eu sou seu Pastinha, sou do mundo afora
Mandingueiro, eu sou jogador
De Regional de capoeira Angola

Coro:
Eu sou madeira de beriba boa
Eu sou beriba de bom berimbau
Eu sou cana de cana caiana
Eu sou cana de canavial
Eu sou a cana que faz a garapa
Eu sou o melado que faz rapadura
Mandingueiro, eu sou jogador
Sou refinado capoeira pura

Coro:
Eu sou madeira de beriba boa
Eu sou beriba de bom berimbau
Eu sou cana de cana caiana
Eu sou cana de canavial
