Halloween Strength--Treat of Tricks

This was the first Halloween after I came to the US that I did not put on a special costume or go to any parties. My way to celebrate Halloween this year was to go the regular capoeira class and do the regular training.

It was Halloween Monday night, so Iuri made the training a bit different. We started with 20 minutes of stretching and running around, and then lots of floor exercise. Then we did two songs and practiced a bit more basic movements and gingas. Iuri seemed to be in the mood of pushing us to our limits. We stayed 30 extra minutes to do many more acobatic movements, push-ups, sit-ups, etc. It felt so good.

To me, a devoted capoeirista, my black pants and white shirt have become regular Halloween constumes. Capoeira has made my everyday halloween, and halloween just another usual day. It brought forth the strength and the aspirations, the fun and the endurance.

Capoeira provides a treat of tricks, and more.
