Class experience
In this course, the students will learn about Capoeira from Brazil via music and dance. This is a fun introduction to the basic movements of Capoeira modified for children. You can expect children to get a full workout while they practice body coordination, awareness, and mobility exercises. We will always start the class with a time-in.

I lived in Bahia, Brasil for 5 years and speak Brazilian Portuguese semi-fluently. I studied Capoeira with the group Filhos de Zumbi in Itacaré and received my first cord in 2012. I am a 600 hr Registered Yoga Teacher with certification in Yoga for Children & Teens.
Students are asked to wear clothing comfortable to move in. For example joggers, leggings, and t-shirts, etc. Ideally, nothing too baggy as it will be difficult to see the motions. T-shirts should be fitted or tucked into pants to avoid shirts coming up during inversions. NO DRESSES OR SKIRTS. Please keep an easy access water bottle nearby during class. You can count on us taking quick sips in between activities.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
We practice balancing and acrobatic exercises. Please have open space approximately 6 X 8 ft on the floor for the learners to move around freely. I recommend a carpeted area, yoga mat, or gymnastics mats. *I remind students in class that these moves should only be used when practicing capoeira. Capoeira should not be used to harm another person.
