Rest in Power 🖤
Mestre Itabora was a pillar in the capoeira community and known around the world for his dedication to this art form. Along with his life long work to maintain and grow the integrity of this art form, he was known for being abundantly welcoming and kind.
One experience with Mestre Itabora that we can share was back when a few of us from Calgary went to visit Capoeira Brasil in Los Angeles for their 30th anniversary celebration and batizado. At the time, we were transitioning between groups, and had arrived with patched (all white) abadá. While we were introducing ourselves and getting settled to take part in the weekend event, among dozens of folks from all over the world at the academy, Mestre Itabora and one of his students called us aside to introduce themselves and welcome us to the event.
While everyone we encountered throughout that weekend was welcoming and kind, this moment really stands out to us. From our perspective, we were a few relatively unknown capoeiristas visiting from out of town with no patch or group affiliation, and here is one of the Mestres of Capoeira Brasil, taking this time to intentionally welcome and include us in the celebration.
This moment of connection was genuinely felt and it can be said that this was one of many reasons we are grateful to call Capoeira Brasil our home. Since then, we have enjoyed each opportunity with Mestre to take his classes, hear him sing, chit chat over coffee, hear a few of his stories during car rides between events, and otherwise enjoy the energy of his presence.
While our connection was all too short, we cherish and appreciate everything Mestre Itabora has done for us, and the capoeira community at large.
Rest in Power 🖤
