WHAT IS CAPOEIRA?
Capoeira is an afro-Brazilian martial art combining kicks, dance, acrobatics & musicality. Capoeira is a great way for children to develop their minds and bodies in a fun and creative way. The benefits of capoeira goes way beyond just physical ones. It teaches self-defence, improves balance & coordination reflexes, spatial awareness, and flexibility as well as improving self-esteem, confidence and an ability to overcome fear and personal challenges. Each class would start with a dynamic, fun warm-up, through the term the classes would vary, learning new kicks, escapes, acrobatics and music. We incorporate lots of games into our teaching approach making it fun and dynamic for children of all ages and abilities. Our Open Sessions for Kids take place in Chigwell, and we have school programmes running across London & Essex.

"It is a real art to create classes that keep children as young as 2 years old engaged, entertained and learning for nearly an hour. Coach Rui is wonder, and my children (aged 4 and 2) adore the classes and are improving their mobility, knowledge and skills every week. There is clearly a lot of thought that goes into the creation of the class structure and it shows, with Rui taking care to ensure all the kids are progressing. I couldn't recommend the children's classes more highly and am so grateful to have found Capoeira Club Essex."

"For the last four years, my son has been working with Professor Molinha, both joining group classes and also taking private lessons. It has been an amazing experience for him because even though Capoeira is a type of martial art, it actually combines elements of dance, acrobatics, and music. He became much stronger and more athletic, improving his core muscles and posture immensely. His coordination developed as well and he has a great sense of rhythm as he plays instruments such as berimbau and pandeiro. Molinha is an old soul, very patient with kids. I feel very lucky that my son spends time with such an amazing individual, a true master in these modern days."
