Capoeira is more than movement — it carries the weight of centuries.
Every swing of the arm, every rhythm of the berimbau, echoes stories of survival, creativity, and resistance.
We’re excited to announce that our long-awaited course, Brazilian History for Capoeiras, is almost ready to launch!
This course is designed especially for Capoeira practitioners who want to contextualize their practice and understand the roots of their art on a deeper level. Whether you’ve been training for years or you’re just starting your journey, this experience will give you tools to recognize how Brazil’s history — from colonization and slavery to resistance and cultural reinvention — lives within every Roda.
🌀 What to expect:
- 31 concise lessons across 10 modules
- Over 4 hours of audiovisual content
- A critical, decolonial perspective on Brazilian history
- Reflective quizzes (no exams!)
- Bonus materials and resources for deeper learning
- Optional 1-on-1 sessions with Professor Juanjo Tartaruga
This isn’t just about facts and dates.
It’s about reclaiming the stories that shaped Capoeira — and continuing the dialogue.
