Capoeira curriculum
Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics, music, and cultural expression. The curriculum often includes lessons on movements like kicks, spins, and dodges, as well as musical training involving traditional instruments and songs. Students learn to participate in "rodas," or circles, where they practice their skills in a social and collaborative environment. Additionally, the curriculum may cover the history and philosophy of Capoeira, emphasizing respect, community, and creativity. This holistic approach fosters physical fitness, rhythm, and an appreciation for cultural heritage while developing martial skills.
