Standing Up to Violence Demo

Wednesday evening's Kids Capoeira demo at the Standing up to Violence conference at East Chestnut Mennonite Church was well done and well received! I'm so proud of you all! In the words of John K Stoner organizer of this conference on local and global peacemaking: "Kids Capoeira was great last evening, just what we hoped for, good audience engagement, with the clapping etc. Those young people showed dedication, focused attention, skill, purpose and cooperation. I wish you all the best!" Wow what a GREAT review! East Chestnut Street Mennonite Church, true to the congregation's generous spirit, fed us warm sweet pancakes in the church basement after our performance. Yum! Thank you Naomi, Sheri, MaryLou and all the other kitchen volunteers. As one of our capoeirstas summed up this day "Mae this was the BEST DAY EVER!" Ha Ha I'm glad it was but I am very confident we will have many many "best days" ahead. I have a grateful spirit today.
