Hi,

I am a Capoeira (Brazilian martial art) student in pursuit of the green cord. I am here to 1. improve my stamina and 2. build shoulder strength so I can go into and hold a handstand. Anybody else?

    Imperial units are still used, to varying degrees, in many parts of the English-speaking world.

    Even in the us, 5k and 10k are very common race distances. Even when I avoided exercise like the plague I knew what a 5k and 10k were.

    I'd love to do Capoeira. I think it's so beautiful. We've got a handstand challenge going on on the challenge board. Come join us!
