Our Roots

Capoeira began over 500 years ago when the Africans who were taken to Brazil and enslaved trained to fight while disguising it as a dance. Over the years this “dance-like fight” evolved into capoeira, and today it brings people together to share positivity through movement and community.

 

Our community values

Our goal is for everyone to feel welcome and respected when they take a capoeira or jiu-jitsu class. We encourage our students to come to class with love and not hate; to focus on what they can do and not what they can’t; to try to help and not to judge; and to share their happiness and help take away others’ sadness.

We seek to improve our physical and mental health as we work together to strengthen our community. We invite you to try a capoeira or jiu-jitsu class and see how your life can be transformed.
