Capoeira is a beautiful Afro-Brazilian art form that challenges you to learn a holistic practice. From movement, to culture and history, to music; there is a rich tapestry of skills that many of us practice for a lifetime. We all come to this art form with different skills and the diversity of our community is what makes us strong.
