About the event

Experience the history and evolution of Capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian martial art, as a revolutionary art form, from Mother Africa to Brazil to the U.S.

Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art created by African warriors who were enslaved in Brazil during colonial times. The African warriors disguised their martial arts as a dance using music and samba. Capoeira was used to preserve the lives, culture, and traditions of African peoples in Brazil and wielded to resist enslavement and later forms of anti-Black oppression. Capoeira arrived in the U.S. in the 1960s and has taken root all over the world.

Evolução takes you through an audio and visual journey of Capoeira's evolution and its impact on freedom fighting globally. Performed by The Capoeira Spot performance team of kids, teens, and adults, and with special guest performers Silva Dance Company and Mestre Omi, this show will get you on your feet and inspire…
