Class Experience
Capoeira provides physical fitness for children, ages 4 and up. It is intended to be a no- to low-contact martial art that helps children with gross motor planning and gross motor skills.

Children will also learn maculele (a dance done hitting sticks against your partner’s sticks), samba, capoeira instruments, and Portuguese through this fun, interactive class. Participants must pre-register for a session.

Other Things To Know

Loved:
The instructor was great. The kids loved it. I love that this will help the kids grow, learn discipline, learn capoeira and culture.
Improvements:
Since our kids are exposed to English and Spanish, I would enjoy it if the teacher continued to give more and more instructions in Portuguese.
