This Project is a reflection of memory of Sebastião - well known as Sabá - who educated his 6 sons and 2 daughters with all love and respect during his journey on earth from 1928 till 1996.
This social was idealized by (me) Flávio, youngest Sabá son who moved to Poconé in 2018 to teach geography in a local school. After it, late 2019, I started to give capoeira lessons to poor kids in two local neighborhoods. Finally, last year (2020) I received an invitation to help a local community center that is supporting the most needy families, it was when I decided to create the project and encompass more persons by remodelling and old house where a class is prepared to receive students as soon as the covid-19 give us a break.
Shifts can be negotiable once you here.
The main rule is the mutual respect.
