Batizado & Troca de Cordas - Grading 2023

Capoeira Abada grading 2023

One more year has passed since our last Batizado, and one more time, we approach the most important event for our Melbourne school.
Our Batizado e Troca de Cordas (Baptism and Grading Ceremony) is on 19th March, but our festival starts much earlier. Since last year, Melbourne, Sydney, and Gold Coast have been doing events together one after the other to make this month exceptional for our school in Australia.
Everybody is welcome to watch and be part of our event, which is free and open to the general public.
