Group Change

So, I guess to make a long story real short we have switched capoeira groups.  Officially now I guess you would say we are CDO.  I'm not sure what that all entails or even if there are going to be big changes but I know that we have found a new capoeira home and training group.



We had been discussing the idea when we moved to Kalamazoo because I knew that Show's group was down here and I know that CDO was very close to Mandinga... so it wasn't going to be that big of a stretch to make that transition.  I knew that we were going to be down here for a few years and I honestly wasn't up with all the politics that seemed to be happening with the high ups in our group.  We started training after I finished my marathon because I was getting bored in the evening!  I had spent all that time running, and all that energy when I stopped doing it I felt like I was missing something...

So, we emailed Trov and asked his blessing if that was cool and he said that it was and wished us well. :)  I know that Trov and Show are friends and really, that's just the respectful thing to do!  So, here we are starting a new chapter in our capoeira history.  :)
