Capoeira Youth Encounter and Teacher Training Seminar
Thursday, February 18 – Sunday, February 21, 2010

Forty youth and families joined us for a full weekend of capoeira, music and maculelê workshops, playful marketplace, and rodas, led by some of the most outstanding teachers of capoeira who work with youth and families in the Bay Area and beyond!

Our Teaching Seminar brought together 25 Adult Capoeiristas of all levels, to explore teaching methods and learn about creating dynamic, inclusive capoeira programs.

Thank you to event sponsors: ClifBar, Goat Hill Pizza, Evergreen Garden Restaurant, and Taqueria El Buen Sabor.

Second Annual Push-up-a-thon

Project Commotion celebrated our first full-year of programming in our Harrison Street facility with our 2nd Annual Push-Up-A-Thon Fundraiser. Over 100 people joined us for performances by PC Youth Capoeiristas, Okinawan Karate Club of San Francisco, and BodiRock Culture! We cheered on over 35 Push-Up Contenders who helped us to raise over $15,000 for PC's scholarship programs.

Congratulations Capoeiristas!

Congratulations to Project Commotion's youth capoeira students who participated in Capoeira USA's 2009 Kid's Batizado on February 28! Students and families had a great time at the event, and as your teachers, we are so proud of the progress you have made and your ability to show off your skills! Thanks to Mestre Urubu Malandro and the students of Capoeira USA, and staff at June Jordan School for Equity who helped with organizing and hosting the event. And special thanks to our special guest, Mestre Espirro Mirim, along with all our visitoring Mestres, teachers and students who shared their great axé!
