About the course
Capoeira is a multifunctional sport that blends attack and defense with flowing movements, acrobatics, music, instruments and song. It is known by quick and complex moves, using mainly power, speed and leverage for leg sweeps. The fusion of these elements builds flexibility, agility, strength, balance and coordination in addition to self-confidence.
The benefits of Capoeira are:
• Capoeira brings health and balance to the life of its participants, whatever their age
• Ideal for building awareness of body and mind
• Builds flexibility, agility, strength and balance
• Teaches fast reflexes and self-defense tactics
• Helps in losing weight and staying fit while having fun
• Capoeira is graceful and challenging, a life-tool encouraging all those who train to grow and invest in physical as well as mental well-being
