Pressing forward... to Sentosa!

Hi everybody,


Seems familiar? =)
On behalf of NUS Capoeira, I would like to thank each and every one of you for making 2012/13 Sem I a fruitful semester. Special thanks to Sanny (aka Cantor) for his patience, dedication, love and guidance in our Capoeira journey. 
For everyone else who will be facing academic exams, FYP or batizado, we wish you all the best. May the axe and the orixas be with you! 

If you miss the last official training (ie. last Thu), fret not. We have another event cooking and coming right up! Details are as follows:
Date: 8th Dec 2012 (Saturday)
Time: 4pm till 'Who-Knows-When'
Venue: Sentosa
By 8 Dec, I believe everyone will be free from exams. Since its also on a Saturday, we'll have people from the 'Singapore workforce' joining us as well ;) Mark your calendar and lets all have a fun-filled chillax session, free from all the exam pressure.

Lemme' give you guys a brief rundown of how the day will turn out.
1. We meet at Vivocity (entrance to Sentosa via the train). 
2. Head out to one of the beaches. Play some games, some tricking and jump into the salty water. 
3. Before the sun sets, we'll take a shower and grab dinner (most probably @ Vivocity but options are open)

I've also put up this event on Facebook -

Please 'self-invite' (if I forgot to invite you) and indicate your attendance so we'll have a rough idea of how many people will be turning up. If you don't use Facebook, you may RSVP via the comments below.

That's all for now. I'll see you guys soon ;)

Change of training venue

Attention guys,

Please note that our last training of the semester, ie 15 Nov 2012 (Thu) will be relocated to YIH Amphitheatre.

Once again, I'll take this opportunity to wish everyone Happy Diwali =)

Meanwhile, here's a song that we've learnt in class ;)
Happy learning. You can find the lyrics to the song by going to the youtube page.

End-of-Sem-Post

Hey guys,

Its already Week 13, which means only 1 more week of official Capoeira classes. So, a few announcements, as I have mentioned in the previous class.

i) There will be no training on 13 Nov 2012 (Tues). Happy Deepavali =) 

ii) The last official training session for the semester is 15 Nov 2012 (Thu). So, lets all try to be there as we'll have a closing roda for the semester, where we bid goodbye to those who will be graduating (maybe?), friends who are on exchange as well as brothers (or sisters) who will be going for exchange next sem. This might just be the last time you'll see them =(

iii) For those who are interested to continue training and not slack off in Dec, we'll have combined training with SMU. 
It will be every Tuesday, 7.30pm-9.30pm @ SMU CCA Hall. This will be a good opportunity for you guys to meet and play with the Capoeiristas from SMU. The fees for Dec is $20.


On behalf of the club, I wish everyone the best of luck in the upcoming exams and a fruitful, fun-filled, fabulous holiday ;)

Change in training venue

Hey guys,

On 4 Oct 2012 (Thu), we will be training at Yusoff Ishak Hall (YIH) Amphitheatre. It will only be for this training session due to the ongoing midterms taking place at MPSH.

Training time is still 7pm - 9pm.

Contact any of us if you can't find your way there (or look at the picture below).

Sorry for the late announcement and see you guys in class =)

NUS Capoeira BBQ

Hello everyone,

Hope training has been rewarding and fun so far =) Its almost half way through the sem already. Time flies.. Leaving the irrelevant aside, its time for our 'annual' BBQ session! *yummeh*

Details first:
Date: 21 Sept 2012 (Friday)
Venue: Trellis towers @ Toa Payoh
Time: 7pm-11pm


Alright, for those who haven't been there, we can all meet at Toa Payoh MRT @ 6.30pm~6.45pm before we ginga..*coughs* walk there together-gether.

Food will be provided, but feel free to bring extra stuffs to share; snacks, drinks, anything =)
However, there will be a 'no-alcohol' policy enforced. Anyone who breaks this rule will have to do cadeira for 1 hour ;)

Come down, have a chat with everyone, see each other outside Capoeira once a while. Things like this don't come often =D (Well, depends on how you define 'often')

Okay! See you guys there!
Before that, I'll see you during training XD

p.s. the pics below are not the bbq pics. Its from our previous cook-out session XD I don't have the BBQ pics. But, the upcoming BBQ will be held at the same place

Sharing is Caring - NUS Capoeira Fundraiser

Hi guys,

Precisely on this day and tomorrow, you will find NUS Capoeira at the Arts linkway (block ADM) selling LaoPan Soy Beancurd! =)

Well, this is because the committee realizes that our semester fee is relatively 'pricey' compared to other martial arts club. Therefore, not only to appeal to the potential members and the freshmen, we would also like to help to reduce the financial burden on the current members. Since we won't be able to get any financial aid from NUS Sports Club nor NUS, we've got to help ourselves right? =D

We're still open for 'business' tomorrow (28 Aug '12) and its selling fast despite the cool, windy and gloomy weather today.

Do drop by to say hi if you're around =)
