"Respeite Capoeira" was created by Brazilian-born Mestre Gharronne in 2015. Until then, they trained under the name of Boa Vontade, a well-known group in Brazil. Most of the trainings in Tampere and Hämeenlinna are held by Noora-Liina Ora (Formada Matraca), who has been practicing capoeira for 12 years.
