World No Tobacco Day Open Roda

日本語

May 31st is World No Tobacco Day

Theme: Gender and tobacco with an emphasis on marketing to women

World No Tobacco Day 2010 will be designed to draw particular attention to the harmful effects of tobacco marketing towards women and girls.

Women comprise about 20% of the world’s more than 1 billion smokers. However, the epidemic of tobacco use among women is increasing in some countries. Women are a major target of opportunity for the tobacco industry, which needs to recruit new users to replace the nearly half of current users who will die prematurely from tobacco-related diseases.

A class for absolute beginners. If you’ve never tried capoeira before, then this is your chance. We’ll be working on all the basics needed to get you started. Having fun, and taking it an easy pace. No rush.

Can’t touch your toes? Well we’ll fix that.

Can’t do a cartwheel? We’ll be working on that.

A great way to finish off your working week, or get energized for a fun weekend.

Week by week, your body will be getting stronger and more flexible. Upper body, core, and legs will get a workout every Saturday night. Soon you’ll be impressing your friends and co-workers with your sexy new body and new found confidence.

Try it out! First class is only 500yen, and we’re less than 5 minutes walk from Kichijoji train station, 15 minutes from Tokyo’s two main stations, Shinjuku and Shibuya.
