GRADUATION
The graduation
is a very important point of reference during the student's training.
The graduation
determines the time of training, the technical quality,
the level of knowledge and the historical and cultural knowledge of Capoeira.
Stimulates the responsibility of the students towards the students of the
lower and higher levels,
towards the older students and the Master. Makes the student responsible for
his behaviour in and out of his group.
