Grupo Mandela Praha ČR
It was 1980 when Grupo Mandela was created under the initiative of Mestre Ze Carlos, who wanted to remind his students of the great man Nelson Mandela and his defiance against racial inequality. Therefore Grupo Mandela was named after Mr. Mandela who is a symbol of freedom, a world in which everyone is equal.

Mestre Baratino has worked with Grupo Mandela in Prague since 2006. His philosophy is to teach capoeira in the way that is was taught to him, and to spread not only capoeira, dance, language, but much more - capoeira’s lifestyle and philosophy.
