Celeste “Azul” Myers – Only The Strongest – Ep189

Everyday Martial Artist

Join us as we sit down with Celeste Myers, also known as “Profesora Azul” in the Capoeira community. With over 20 years of experience, Celeste’s journey began in gymnastics and sports before pursuing a B.A. in music. She went on to teach music and math in public and private schools for over a decade.

Celeste has not only run two successful Capoeira schools but also made her mark in the competitive scene. She adjudicated at the first ICAPF tournament in Los Angeles in 2012 and earned first place in both the co-ed solo and partner divisions at the Intermountain West ICAPF tournament in 2016. Additionally, she has performed in numerous Capoeira exhibitions, taught workshops across the U.S., and even trained in Brazil. Through partnerships with state programs, she has brought Capoeira to schools throughout the Intermountain West.

Outside of Capoeira, Celeste enjoys tricking, music writing, video games, and spending time with her family. She also co-hosts the popular podcast, Only The Strongest.

Today, we’re excited to have her share her story and passion for Capoeira. Please welcome my guest, Celeste Myers!
