The importance of Capoeira for children is not only in the historical and cultural aspect, but also in the physical qualities it helps develop; balance, motor coordination, speed, strength and creativity. It also helps to develop the full potential of each young person.
Danca Da Liberdade
We are working with Danca Da Liberdade, a capoeira group from Rio de Janeiro led by Mestre Guimba. Based in South London they have taught capoeira to adults and children for over a decade.
Instructors from Danca Da Liberdade visited Belair Children’s Home In Grenada last summer to run a week’s course for around 20 girls. While they found the acrobatics challenging, they took to the music like pros and we’ll be returning this year.
