The group here in Falmouth is a family affair! Brisa has been involved in capoeira for over 30 years and comes from a family of capoeira players originating in North East Brazil. Her and her husband, Figura, left London to live in the South West in 2014 and the group has been active since then. Brisa has two sisters and a brother in London and Brighton who are regular visitors to Cornwall to support the group. The group is overseen by Master Roberval, the founder of the group Menino Quem Foi Seu Mestre (Boy, Who is Your Master) and he visits the UK from Brazil regularly. Mestre Roberval is respected throughout the capoeira community and his knowledge of the art form can be traced right back to the old masters. He aims to maintain and preserve the traditions and teachings of capoeira angola.
