ABOUT US
Rise Training Academy is a cultural space providing wellness, dance, and martial arts instruction to the underserved South Side community. We add to the continuing revitalization of the area providing services not currently offered within our neighborhoods.
We believe that learning capoeira, samba, as well as other martial arts and wellness practices, are excellent ways to introduce and immerse arts, culture, and fitness to people of all ages. Exercise and movement are beneficial to combating stress and are known to help improve mood. Martial arts are known to improve self-confidence and discipline.
