Martial Arts

Capoeira (CAPO - ERA)
Is an Afro Brazilian art form that combines Martial Art, Dance, Music and Culture into one unique GAME

The Game

This unique game happens between two players that create conversation with their body by exchanging kicks and escapes, using cartwheels, handstands and acrobatic movements set to the rhythm of Brazilian songs and percussion instruments.

Capoeira 6-14 years
Capoeira is an ideal martial art program for children because it relies on agility and spontaneous escapes, rather than using aggressive strength and violence. Being a unique art form, Capoeira encourages teamwork, self-confidence, self-expression and exposure to a new cultural experience. Taught by Baz Michaeli, Certified Capoeira instructor.
