Instrutore
Rainha
About Instrutore Rainha:
Instrutore Rainha began their capoeira journey in 1999 at a small college in rural Ohio with Professora Abobora of UCA. She continued in Brazil under (now Mestre) Tourinho of CDO, where rodas routinely began with maculele! After years of travelling, Rainha finally settled in Portland in 2010 specifically to train with ContraMestre Vira Lata. An avid fan and student of all Afro-Brazilian folkloric arts, Rainha loves the rhythms and movements of maculele almost as much as capoeira.
