Capoeira Event Info Sheet

MiSAAC Social Event: Information Sheet
Capoeira

Come hear, see and feel Capoeira! This is a form of Brazilian martial arts (non-contact) which combines music, dance and acrobatic moves.

This event is open to all individuals who use augmentative and alternative communication and their families. It is a chance to meet new friends, share ideas and network. Those who use AAC will have a chance to interact with and direct the Capoeiristas! It promises to be a very exciting and entertaining afternoon.

We will have a room for snacks and a craft activity. Those interested will be able to make their own version of a Caxixi – a Brazilian type of maraca.

Several individuals who use assistive technology will have their crafts available for sale.
