In 1982, Mestra Cigarra began studying capoeira under Mestre Camisa in Rio de Janeiro, successfully developing into Mestre Camisa's top female student. There she was given her capoeira nickname of "Cigarra, " or "Dragonfly" in Portuguese. In 1987, she began to conduct classes for street children, youth, and adults in Rio de Janeiro.
Unlike traditional sports, martial arts do not fall into specific individual or team activity categories. They are actually the best of both worlds, encouraging individual performance and growth within a positive team environment that fosters effective interaction with others. This combination makes capoeira the absolute best way for children to grow as individuals.
