Pula-Pula and Lotacao are the two “professors” of our group. They are still students of our mestre, but they help him teach in some settings, such as the after-school classes at ECA.
Pula-Pula means jump-jump. She got that nickname because she’s the only girl in the group who does flips.
Pula-Pula. Given name: Diana.

Lotacao translates roughly to “capacity.” He’s the driver of the group. His car is always full of instruments and often rolls up to class with seven or more passengers packed in there.
Lotacao. Given name: Juan Carlos.
