Capoeira

Our style of Capoeira is Capoeira Angola de Sao Bento Grande, a style of the art hailing from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. While there are numerous reasons to learn Capoeira, I offer four basic reasons below:

1. Learn how to defend yourself from attack

2. Gain greater control over your body and your health

3. Learn how to play musical instruments and sooth your mind

4. Join an international cohort of Black people dedicated to the liberation of Africans worldwide

Class times

Monday, 6:30 PM-7:30 PM CST

Wednesday, 6:30 PM-7:30 PM CST

Saturday, 11:00 AM-12:00 PM CST
