A Brazilian martial art that is hidden in dance and played as a friendly game between practitioners inside a circle with music and songs. It came to Brazil when slaves were brought from Africa during the mid 1500s. Under the watchful eye of the slave owner, capoeira appeared as a harmless dance. After the abolition of slavery in 1888, capoeira survived in the poorer neighborhoods (despite persecution from police) until becoming legalized in the 1930's. Today capoeira has become an art practiced around the world.

Movements, Music, and Brazilian culture make capoeira classes unique and challenging. There is grace, beauty, risk, reward, and danger. Capoeira can be played by everyone; the strong and the weak, the young and the old, the blind and the deaf.

Capoeira is for everyone.
