What is the batizado?
Every year we celebrate the batizado. Batizado translated means baptism. In capoeira a batizado is when a new student is officially welcomed into the group as a serious practitioner - a capoeirista - and given a special belt called cordel. It's a time of celebration, not a test. it's the chance to take part in some really incredible capoeira rodas, meet visiting mestres, do special workshops, deepen your understanding of capoeira and really enjoy yourself!
