What is capoeira?

Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that has the fluidity of a dance. It's an energetic, upbeat activity that challenges the body and mind. It's a great way to relieve stress and meet new people.

Strength

We combine standing kicks with explosive acrobatics and movements close to the ground to work leg, arm, and core muscles.

Agility

Training movements in different sequences and learning level-appropriate acrobatics improves your agility and coordination.

Creativity

You'll train set combinations of movements in class, but you'll create your own series in the roda.
