Once upon a time, in the marvellously diverse state of Oregon, also known as the Beaver State, there was a swarm of energetic kiddos who were head over heels for a zesty activity named Capoeira. Oregon, with its wild coastline, vast forests, and towering mountains, was the perfect playground for these lively youngsters. They loved to frolic amidst the towering Douglas firs, their laughter echoing across the verdant valleys. And when they weren't exploring the outdoors, they were twisting, flipping, and jumping in an exhilarating dance of Capoeira! The leader of this brigade was a funky character named Captain Capybara - the coolest Capoeira master this side of the Willamette River. Captain Capybara, to the untrained eye, might seem like a regular Oregonian guy, but, oh boy, he was anything but ordinary. With his purple polka-dotted cape, sunshine-yellow boots, and a neon-green fedora hat, he was a sight to behold! Captain Capybara could twirl on one hand while juggling pinecones with the other, all the while reciting the state motto, "She flies with her own wings", backwards! The kids often doubled over with laughter watching his antics. But when it came time to learn Capoeira, they were all ears and eyes. These Oregonian kids, training under the endearingly quirky Captain Capybara, were not just learning a martial art; they were becoming a part of a rich cultural tapestry, stretching back to the African roots of Capoeira. They learnt to respect their teammates, believe in themselves, and always, always have fun. After all, in the words of their beloved, wacky mentor, "Capoeira without a chuckle, is like Oregon without its puddles!”
