capoeira

Capoeira is an afro-Brazilian artform, that contains aspects of dance, music, culture and martial arts. It's a unique manifestation of Afro-Brazilian culture. It has also been my gateway from martial arts and performance sport into dance and cchoreography. I've practiced it since I was 17 and have been actively teaching classes sine I became 20.

We can only move forward in life. As a capoeira practitioner, teacher and movement artist, I firmly believe that it is my duty to contribute to the development of my practice and inspire others to do the same. Be 
it through performance or teaching, I feel the need to continuously move towards the future with respect to the roots and history of my art. Teaching is an art, and through it I support the journey of youth into the future. In class I feel profoundly conscious that through the ritual of movement culture I transmit values of respect and unity to my students.
