Body, Rhythm and Resistance — Private Capoeira Class with Master

The meeting begins with a pick-up at the hotel, with a historical context led by the guide about capoeira as a "martial art, dance and cultural expression born of resistance" during the Brazilian colonial period — its origins date back to Quilombo dos Palmares, at the end of the 16th century. The session takes place in a traditional Capoeira Angola school, starting with a cultural workshop presenting the instruments — berimbau, atabaque and tambourine. You learn the meaning of the chants and the philosophy of capoeira before receiving personalized practical instruction in the basic movements and the "game of capoeira".
