What we teach?

🌟 Capoeira
Capoeira is a Brazilian art that mixes martial arts, dance, music, and acrobatics. It’s played in a circle with singing, clapping, and traditional instruments. Kids love it because it feels like a game — full of kicks, dodges, spins, and flowing movements. It builds strength, coordination, confidence, and teamwork.

💃 Samba
Samba is Brazil’s most famous dance — full of rhythm, joy, and colourful energy. It’s danced to lively Brazilian music with lots of hip, foot, and body movement. Samba is great for improving rhythm, balance, and confidence while having fun to upbeat music.

🪘 Maculelê
Maculelê is an energetic Brazilian dance where participants use sticks or machetes (we use safe pool noodle as sticks!) to create rhythmic patterns in time with the music. It’s exciting, loud, and great for building timing, coordination, and focus — and kids love the sound and movement combination.
