WHAT IS DESTINATION JAMAICA?
Mestre Curisco, Instrutor Morcego, and the Capoeira Malês family invite you to Destination Jamaica, an international capoeira encounter in Discovery Bay, Jamaica from March 15 – 20, 2011. Destination Jamaica will bring capoeiristas from around the world to experience a unique week of workshops, rodas, excursions, and plenty of fun and sun on the beautiful Puerto Seco Beach in Discovery Bay. This is your chance to explore and celebrate the depth and richness of the African diaspora through capoeira while immersed in Jamaican culture.
Destination Jamaica will feature a variety of workshops tailored to your level of experience. Whether you’re a seasoned high cord or just received your first rasteira, you’ll have the opportunity to train with students of similar skill levels.
Instructors and high level capoeiristas need not worry! Destination Jamaica will feature separate workshops for advanced practitioners. Under the direction of our renowned guests, you will be able to freely focus on your own development.
DAY EXCURSIONS
Want to take a break? Destination Jamaica will offer several opportunities to experience all that Jamaica has to offer. Indulge your senses as you sample the diverse offerings of Caribbean cuisine.
