HISTORY      

        In 1998, 4 teachers, Everaldo, Cri, Wallace and Renatinho, from Capoeira Regiangola, decided to leave the group and bring a new one to Teresópolis. They visited Lagoa Azul, supervisor (still Contra-Mestre) João do Pulo, and joined it. From these 4, only Contra-Mestre Everaldo and Prof. Cri still remain with the group. Everaldo became teacher (green rope, now brown), and graduated his first graduado: Fred. So far, he graduated five teachers, Queijinho, Elétrico, Fred, Beto, Tarobinha and 10 more graduados: Janjão, Geraldinho, Geléia, Soca Bife, Mauricio, Gafanhoto, Cabeça, Ricardo, Ronaldo and Lafond. Considered a group that is growing very fast in the city, it had been done a well done job in school and academies; shows in several places in Teresópolis and Rio de Janeiro. It has a remarkable presence in the events and rodas of the Group in Rio de Janeiro.
