Choose your Art Houten: “Then we saw capoeira”

Hooray! The Utrecht Youth Fund for Sports & Culture launched the sixth video of "Choose Your Art" in Houten today. The videos feature young people sharing their passion for art. 

A safe place to be yourself

In this sixth video, we see Jim, 9 years old. He's studying capoeira at the Casca Dura Academy in Houten. "I wanted to do freerunning and I wanted to do a martial art. And capoeira combines all those sports. That's what I really like about capoeira," says Jim. "I'm very proud of something! My jump turn." Watch here is Jim's video.

Choose your art Houten

Choose Your Art Houten is a series of short videos commissioned by the Utrecht Youth Fund for Sports & Culture and in collaboration with the Houten Youth Pass for Sports & Culture and the Shine Houten Foundation. The videos aim to get more children and young people excited about art, with the message that tuition doesn't have to be an obstacle. This video was created by Sjoerd Derine.

Choose your Art Houten is made possible in part by a contribution from the municipality of Houten.
