“Love it! This is a great community for training capoeira. Mike leads very thoughtful classes that are also a great workout. The facilities are amazing for working on tricks on the spring floor and trampoline. Highly recommend!"

Why Capoeira for Adults?

Capoeira is a martial art that blends fighting, rhythm, music, and culture into a full-body experience.

You'll build functional strength, flexibility, and coordination with a proven method to develop athleticism.

Why adults are choosing capoeira over traditional martial arts:

  • It's a complete movement practice — not just punches and kicks

  • You'll learn acrobatic skills (macacos, aerials, flow transitions) in a safe, progressive way

  • Every class includes live music and rhythm

  • The community is welcoming and tight-knit. You'll train with people who want to help you grow

  • It's a stress-relieving, screen-free hour and a half where your body and mind are fully engaged
