A great new initiative called Connectualise, a Capoeira community development project, aims to organize strong connections with Capoeiristas interested in community development and positively influence local areas.

Project Aim:

This project aims to connect community development practitioners and Capoeira practitioners to share knowledge and skills and explore possibilities for collaboratively building stronger inter-relationships within the community.

Project Rationale:

This project recognises that practitioners of community development and of Capoeira share similar interests and each engage in activities that serve to build stronger communities. An unrealised and logical fit may therefore exist between:

* the art and culture of Capoeira; and
* community development practitioners who seek a greater level of social participation and interpersonal connectedness for the individuals and families with whom they work.

 

Project Action:

The project will begin with expressions of interest from individuals in the community, followed by an invitation to participate in topic development. I will then run an initial workshop responding to the needs and questions as raised by participants.
