Capoeira retreat in glorious Cornish countryside

JingaFest (Summer Camp) 2012 is the UK’s premium capoeira retreat held in Cornwall over the Queen’s Diamond Jubillee double bank holiday weekend: Friday June 1st – Tuesday June 5th.

The 4-day festival will feature over 30 capoeira workshops across all styles from renowned UK masters (including Mestre Joaozinho & CM Claudio Campos) and other guest teachers, as well as workshops in yoga & samba.

The venue is the Chyan Cultural Centre (near Falmouth), an 11 acre nature reserve, woodland and organic garden, complete with its very own stream. There are two modern barns (with high-quality wooden floors) and several tented structures, such as tepees, marquees and yurts, which will house a shop, message therapy centre and tea/coffee room. The site also has natural toilets, wood-fired showers and hot tub.

We anticipate no more than 100 adults on site, plus some children. Tickets are sold in advance so that we can cater as well as possible for everyone. All you will need to bring is a tent, a toothbrush and a chilled attitude.

More info will be uploaded here soon. In the meantime, when people ask you what you’re doing on the Queen’s Jubillee weekend, tell them you’re going to JingaFest Summer Camp.

Tudo de bom – saude e paz Canguru
