Mestre Leopoldina 1933-2007

Mestre Leopoldina

On October 17, 2007, Capoeira lost one of it's most esteemed and treasured Mestres - Mestre Leopoldina. He passed away at 4:30pm today in the city of São José dos Campos.

"Nem dinheiro pra gastar
Que é minha companheira
Essa grande amisade,
Dentro do meu coração, camara"

- from "Ganga Zumbi", Mestre Leopoldina

UPDATED 10/18/2007 08:03 AM EST - More news at Portal Capoeira and discussion at the Capoeira.com forum...

More on the flipside...

We received word via email this morning from Jorge itapua Beiramar and we were greatly saddened by the news. The capoeira world will miss him greatly.

More information about Mestre Leopoldina and his passing can be found at the Capoeira Jogo Atletico blog, in Portuguese. You can also read an older interview with him at the Dutch Capoeira magazine Agogo

Another Mestre is gone, another Mestre I wish I had the chance to have met.

I know he will be in a better place, playing with the Mestres who left before him.

Descanse em Paz Mestre, que o Senhor o acompanhe nessa viagem.

com muitos sentimentos
