Student Profile | Sonia “Assustada” de Andrade

A love for music and an uncanny ability to fall "up" stairs comes up this months featured student Sonia "Assustada" de Andrade from the Winchester Hills class. Sonia has been involved with CDC for a long time and will be a regular feature at the Winchester Hills Class in 2012 - even if she doesn't know it yet... If you see her in class then please give her a hand with her S-Dobrado as she wants to nail this move in the next couple of months!

"Your movement, it's good, but your kick... it sucks" Those were Contra-Mestre Salles' words to Norio De Sousa who has been a part of the CDC family for just 5 months but he has certainly been hitting it hard! His kicks may suck right now but with the dedication and enthusiasm Norio has shown he will be throwing Folha Seca's in no-time. If you want to find out exactly what his favourite sayings and quotes are, best you ask him in person! Find out more about Norio on our latest student profile.
