NYC 2010 Batizado
I just got back from Mestre Caxias' batizado in NYC. It was his last batizado while living in New York. He will be moving to Dubai with his wife, Sol for the next couple years. The event and the workshops beforehand were great. The week before the batizado, all of us in NC took workshops with Formanda Colibri.
In the end, I came out with a new cord (nice to have a fresh one that doesn't smell like hell) and a lot of new information and ideas for training for the next months. And my legs feel like they're going to fall off. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time or energy to do much outside of batizado and workshops. I would have liked to meet with my uncle and a few friends while I was there, but it wasn't going to happen. I guess we can't have it all.
Now that we're back in Durham, the students at CBNC are getting ready for Mestre Caxias and Prof. Trovão's upcoming visit on the weekend of June 19. New cords for the students here will be riding on performance during the next weeks. Wish them luck!
