In this inaugural episode of the Reflections on Capoeira podcast Broderick had the privilege to interview our beloved and wise Mestre Itaborá Ferreira before he transitioned into the ancestral realm. Mestre Itaborá was an important Capoeira Mestre for many students of various backgrounds and schools from around the world. He was especially pivotal in the Bay Area, California for his efforts to unify the community.
