Spring Festival Program 
spring festival 2011
This year our annual festival is a commemoration of the 110 years since Mestre Bimba, creator of Capoeira Regional, was born. Our festival will pay homage to this great and innovative Mestre and celebrate our passion for the sport that he created. This year we are also thrilled to welcome everyone to the new home of GCB Mestre Cabe�a at the "Grupo Capoeira Brasil Training Center" in Brighton, MA.
