This Capoeira class will include the training of fundamental movements as well as music. Interspersed within a class, students will also learn about the etiquette, language, and philosophy of the game. If you are interested in being playful, challenging yourself physically and mentally, playing music, and being a part of a burgeoning Capoeira community, come check us out. It is a lot of fun. All are welcomed.
