Salve Everyone!
COVID-19 has derailed most of our lives in one way or another. The Capoeira Academy is no exception. Above ALL else we want to thank the many students and parents who have continued to support the academy regardless of what level of training you’ve been receiving. Because of you, we have been able to keep the academy and will ensure an even better home for your capoeira journey. Many of you have stopped training during the pandemic and we understand the hardships and concerns you may have. We want to assure you that we are doing everything we can to create a safe and comfortable environment to return to when the time is right.
We’re taking this opportunity to make some changes and implement new ideas. This newsletter is one of those additions. In this letter, we will release schedule updates, upcoming events, student recognition, promotions, etc. We hope this will keep everyone informed as well as bring our community closer together.
Updates
Covid Scare
Currently, in-person classes are suspended until further notice. CM Bambu trains clients in the suburbs at a private studio and an employee there tested positive. He has no symptoms but is erring on the side of caution. He will wait on his test results before reopening the academy classes. Until then, all classes will be online thru Zoom.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Continuing Training
Once we return to the academy, we have a maximum of 6 students per class in the academy. If you are uncomfortable with this kind of setting but would like to continue your training we have a couple of options:
Private and Small Group Capoeira Training for all ages with CM Bambu
Events
