Capoeira Class and Circle

Experience a form of movement that combines spins, turns, precisely aimed kicks, evasive defense moves, and breathtaking acrobatics. Capoeira is a unique Afro-Brazilian martial art played in a ‘roda,’ or circle, between two players. It challenges physical agility and coordination, as well as strategy and interaction. Students learn the physical art, as well as how to play music (an essential component) on a variety of instruments used in the roda, and to sing and speak in Portuguese. The class is free and open to all skill levels! Instruction is provided by the Brazilian Arts Foundation.
