You can take the girl out of Brooklyn... well, you know the rest. 

I was born and raised in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn where traditions stood true and respect was of great importance.  I have spent my life knowing I can do anything I set my mind to, because my mother told me so.  
In 1998, I brought my Brooklyn swagger to Fort Lauderdale, FL. but as of Sepetember 2012 I'm back in NY... East Hampton to be exact!  Check out my teaching schedule :)

Through this website, I reveal my passion for life. Please explore and enjoy.

Capoeira Workshop- 
Mandala Yoga Studio

Join us for a 2 hour glimpse into the Brazilian Martial Art known as Capoeira with Graduado Samurai student of Mestre Lampreia founder of Motumbaxé Capoeira. In this two hour practice we will explore and play with the fundamentals of this fluid and fierce practice. 

Capoeira is most widely known for being disguised as dancing since fighting and training were outlawed by the slave masters in Brazil. Capoeira remained outlawed until 1920 and is now practiced all over the world. In Brazil, as part of the culture, there is capoeira everywhere – in elementary schools, universities, clubs, and in military academies.
