Apparently, 4capoeirathoughts is blocked there for interaction. "Thank you all for your comment and the positive feedback!! The world looks more bright when you hear that there more people out there who have the same attitudes. The `holding page`for www.bidnacapoeira.org is online now. We’re focussing on programs in the Middle East this year, with deprived local communities and refugee camps. We also hope to build a network of capoeiristas and supporters so soon we can work worldwide. We also plan to do other activities to make our programs more varied; such as theatre, dance or other things our trainers are passionate about. (We love capoeira but you can’t play it all day) Our 2nd Batizado is on the 15 - 18ten of July, see you there inshallah! Axe from Damascus, Laranja" Camaradas,

Laranja wrote me an email telling that he's using a proxy server to read your comments. We're thinking about alternative ways for him to reply your comments. Sorry for taking so long to post something here, but as most of the comments were directed to Laranja, I was waiting for him to answer. Please, check the last part of the interview and lets keep in touch. Thanks for all your support! Axé! Eurico Gente,

I can so relate to it. I started what I thought was the first Capoeira group in the Arab world in 2005 in Beirut. I was talking to a friend that I was training capoeira, so then he asked me to show me some. This turned in a small group of us, training wherever we could find spaces, parking lots, abandoned buildings, roof tops, empty streets at night... the enthusiasm and energy of my 'students' was amazing, we had no instruments, no place and were facing a lot of ignorance and often rejection. We had to make do with whatever we had. It was inspiring. I had to leave in 2006, but I think the group is still going in Hamra. Parabens for doing this amazing work and inspiring so many people. This is the true capoeira for me!!!!!!!!! Muito axe ron (sabugo/carioca) This is an amazing story. I can so relate to it.
