One of our typical classes takes about 2 hours and is open to all levels (beginners – experienced). After warming up together basic Capoeira techniques of attack and defense are taught along with specific acrobatic movements. If necessary the group is split in order to adequately address the needs of newcomers and experienced students.
Our training consists of learning Capoeira songs, instruments (Berimbao, Tambourine, Drum etc.), other related Brazilian dances such as Samba de Roda and Maculele and lessons on the historic and cultural background of our art.
In June 2010, the Jamaican Capoeira Federation (JACF) was established and is affiliated with the International Capoeira Federation (FICA). FICA aims to establish capoeira as an international sport fit to be part of the world Olympics competition.
We urge all students training capoeira to be part of the federation that will grant them access to local and international competitions, discounts on classes, workshops and much more!! See below for class schedule and membership benefits.
