Capoeira is a great activity for children, empowering them in numerous ways. Our classes for kids 8+ are designed to promote creativity, develop confidence and self-esteem, build teamwork and support the physical and mental wellbeing of all the children attending.

Learning through fun and accessible activities, capoeira will vastly improve children's coordination as they learn new movements, movement patterns and how to play the instruments of Capoeira. Their imaginations will be fuelled as they learn to communicate through movement. The need to interact in pairs and as a group throughout the class will reinforce social skills and the concept of teamwork. Capoeira will teach them about mutual respect and unlike other martial arts, the aim is not to win or hit the opponent but rather to work together transforming movements into a dialogue. They will also sing and learn stories through songs that will expose them to a foreign language and culture without even realising it.
