Our kids program is about more than movement—it’s about building strong, confident, and respectful individuals. Through capoeira, children develop coordination, focus, and discipline while learning how to express themselves through music, movement, and culture. Every class blends physical training with character development, helping students grow not just as athletes, but as leaders and positive members of their community. We emphasize confidence, respect, and perseverance—giving kids tools they carry far beyond the classroom.
Our adult program is a full-body, full-culture experience. Train in capoeira while exploring the deeper traditions that surround it, including maculelê and puxada de rede. Each class challenges your strength, mobility, and coordination while connecting you to the rhythm, history, and spirit of Afro-Brazilian culture. Whether you’re looking to get in shape, relieve stress, or learn something meaningful, this program offers a powerful balance of movement, music, and community. No experience needed—just come ready to move
