The class
A Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance and music. It was created in Brazil mainly by descendants of African slaves with Brazilian native influence, probably beginning in the 16th century. In this class you’ll develop endurance, physical conditioning and mental balance through a unique mix of martial arts, dance, game, music and acrobatics. Capoeira is open to everyone and during this class you will learn complex moves using power and speed to leverage leg sweeps.
