Capoeira
WITH INSTRUCTOR GUSTAVO
Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian art form that combines music, dance, martial arts, and acrobatics. Through its stylized movements, capoeira encourages physical, social, and emotional development by engaging participants in nonverbal and verbal communication.
Children learn how to play traditional Brazilian instruments, sing music in Portuguese, and skillfully perform capoeira moves such as kicks and cartwheels. The children not only have fun, but they develop critical life skills such as focus, discipline, and respect. Children at GIRAFAS love capoeira!
