Capoeira

A unique Afro-Brazilian martial art, capoeira is a fusion of self-defense, acrobatics, dance and music. Participants in the roda, or playing circle, take turns in friendly sparring, while those watching from the circle accompany with clapping, songs and traditional Brazilian musical instruments. In class, students practice the characteristic kicks, dodges and fluid movement patterns as a group, and gradually learn to practice them safely in pairs. Students develop aerobic conditioning, lower and upper body strength, flexibility, grace, quick reflexes, and musicality. As they learn to participate in the roda, students also have the opportunity to develop a deeper sense of self-awareness, an appreciation of the talents and styles of other players, and a visceral understanding of the dynamics of group cohesion.
