Olá, little Capoeiristas!
I’m Mestre Paulo Batuta, but you can just call me Batuta—it means "cool guy"! I’ve been playing Capoeira since I was a kid in Brazil, and now I get to share this amazing game with you!
Capoeira is all about movement, music, and having fun while learning cool kicks, escapes, and tricks. It’s like playing, dancing, and flying all at once!
So, come join me — let’s sing, move, and play together.
Are you ready? Let’s go! Axé!
Your Mestre Paulo Batuta
