CAPOEIRA
Capoeira is a cultural expression that was created from slavery and was passed on in spite of being banned in Brazil. Capoeira embodies the communities of African and Indigenous People of Brazil who fought together for a better life.
Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian art that strengthens the body with kicks and acrobatics. This martial art has united communities globally through movement and music. Join us for a unique cultural experience.
