Paulo da Silva started Capoeira
at age of 9 in Salvador, Bahia with his uncle, the "famous" Mestre
Nagé. Soon after, Mestre Joćo de Barros took over his training.
Noticing his abilities, Mestre Barros took him around the country to participate
in tournaments and perform demonstrations.
In 1992, "Oba-Oba", a
Brazilian company that travels around the world promoting the Brazilian culture,
invited him to come to the USA.
Here, as a Mestre, he
participated on the movie "Only the Strong", which prompted him to
teach the art in Pompano Beach, FL. Since then, he has promoted Capoeira in
South Florida and is considered one of the best "Capoeiristas" in the
USA, with 24 years of experience.

Marcos Silva started Capoeira at
age 9 also in Salvador, Bahia. His older brother,
Mestre Branca, used to pay Marcos in order to motivate him to attend classes and follow his
steps. However, by age 17, as he was performing with several famous groups in
Salvador, he fell hopelessly in love with Capoeira .
Then, he was invited to train with Mestre Alabama, where, after years of
training, he graduated as "professor". He started traveling to attend
Capoeira events worldwide and ended up in Florida, where he is well known for
his accomplishments and techniques. He now teaches at The Ultimate Capoeira and
also stars as the lead Capoeirista at the "The Brazilian Tropicana
Restaurant" shows in Pompano Beach, FL. |

Robson de Jesus started his
Capoeira training at the age 13 in Salvador, Bahia. At that time, Mestre Branca
(his neighbor) was an instructor at Mestre Joćo de Barros' school. One day,
Mestre Branca took him to train Capoeira and since then he never stopped.
He was also trained by Mestre
Alabama, where he graduated as "professor".
His potential was noticed by his
instructors and he was immediately invited to travel around Brazil to perform
with several famous groups including "Ballet Folclorico da Bahia" and
"Plataforma I" in Rio de Janeiro.
In 1994, he arrived in the US to
perform with "Scala Miami", setting domicile in Pompano Beach, FL.
He is the Chief-Instructor and
partner at The Ultimate Capoeira and has developed all the curriculum and
training for the school. In his free-time, he stars at the "Brazil-Brazil
Restaurant" in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Robson de Jesus is considered one of the "New
Generation of Masters in Capoeira".
