Frequently Asked Questions

  • What can I expect from a beginner's class?

    Starting a capoeira martial arts program can be intimidating, but there's nothing to fear! A beginner's class usually includes an introduction to the basics of capoeira, such as kicks, punches, dodges, and sweeps. The focus is on building fundamental skills that will serve as a basis for future training.

  • Are there any extra fees besides the monthly membership fee?

    Absolutely not! No hidden fees - just one simple monthly membership fee that gives you access to a world of amazing benefits. Our commitment to transparency ensures that you can enjoy all the wonderful perks without any surprises. Join our growing community of happy members who have already experienced the great value we offer.

  • How big are the classes?

    We keep an average class size of just 5-10 students at a time in our Capoeira Martial Arts classes.


    This smaller class size ensures that our dedicated instructors can provide personalized coaching and guidance, helping you develop and excel at your own pace. Plus, with a tight-knit community of fellow students, you'll enjoy a supportive and engaging learning environment.

  • Is Capoeira Martial Arts dangerous?

    Although any sport or activity has some risk involved, our team of certified instructors follow safety protocols to ensure a safe and supportive environment for our students. In fact, unlike sports where there is one adult supervising a whole team, we have multiple instructors monitoring a room at all times making sure everything runs smoothly. We understand that each student has their own unique limits and we encourage rest and feedback during exercise.

  • Do I need to be athletic to benefit from Capoeira Martial Arts?

    Our classes are designed to accommodate students regardless of their weight, age, abilities, or energy levels. Surprisingly, many of our students have tried sports and other athletic activities only to realize they are not for them. Capoeira Martial Arts is often a refuge in these cases as competition is eliminated and each student only tries what they feel comfortable doing.

  • Are these classes only for Men or can Women do it too?

    There are a lot of women in many of our classes as well as men. Women love Capoeira Martial Arts just as much, and get the same satisfaction out of it as men do. Also, women are just as tough as men in our classes. Some are even tougher!
