Capoeira Angola
with Professora Rouxinol
Capoeira Angola is a Brazilian art form from the African diaspora that combines elements of dance, martial arts, acrobatics, music, ritual and culture. Consider the art form as an inspiration to and broadening of what your sense of movement and music are. Delve into this dynamic practice to develop mobility, strength, flexibility, musicality, self-confidence and community!

“Our game is a mosaic
— we are working on the shards. Each shard we find, we save and add it to our mosaic.
Nosso jogo é um mosaico
—estamos trabalhando os caquinhos. Cada peça que acha, agente guarda e coloca no mosaico.”
— Mestre Cabello

“Capoeira Angola, mandinga de escravo em ânsia de liberdade. Seu princípio não tem método e o seu fim é inconcebível ao mais sábio capoeirista.”
— Grande Mestre Pastinha
