As part of our Roda De Rua Series, this year, Capoeira Aruanda is holding a samba workshop, open to the public with the very talented dancer and teacher Cristina Ramon.

We are inviting everyone to come and join us at the Coogee Eastward Senior Citizen’s Hall on Sunday 28th February for this workshop from 12:30pm – 2pm.

Everyone is welcome to attend, however booking is essential as we have only limited places. To register and request payment details, email us and show your support on facebook. We are having a very special price for this workshop, only $30 for members of the public ($50 with a Roda De Rua designed singlet).

Let everyone know about this event and come along and dance up a storm!
