Melanie loves to playfully inspire and empower everyone to be at their best self while living the best life available here and now. Philosophy: Love, health and happiness start from within.
Manuel began his journey into Capoeira in Milan in 2013. He learned the skills and philosophy of Capoeira under Mestre Tarzam of Oxossi Capoeira. Manuel was already teaching Capoeira in Milan before he moved to Malta two years ago. When he arrived on the island, he immediately began teaching Capoeira with the aim of creating a community of sharing and common growth such as that he experienced. Manuel loves to bring people together and see them happy, and he also loves to entertain and play with them. Philosophy: Love and happiness are to share with others.
