WELCOME TO THE

CAPOEIRA SPOT!

We are CapoeiraDC

— What is Capoeira?

Capoeira was developed by African warriors enslaved in Brazil and used to fight for their freedom. Today, there is still an urgent need for the liberating arts. At the Capoeira Spot, we empower youth and adults to grow stronger together.

TAKE A CLASS

“I gain a sense of community, a kickass workout, a chance to expand my mind and learn about a different culture than my own, a way to test myself physically and mentally, and an amazing family.”

- Aalap (CapoeiraDC student)

— JOIN THE EXPERIENCE

“CapoeiraDC is genuinely invested in the development and physical and mental growth of the children. It's more than just a gym where one would do the work and leave. It's a family. There is love around and it is felt.”
