Capoeira Mestres

Capoeira Mestres are highly skilled and respected leaders in the Afro-Brazilian martial art of capoeira, which combines elements of dance, music, and acrobatics. These masters not only possess advanced techniques and knowledge of capoeira's history and philosophy but also play a crucial role in teaching and preserving the art form. They guide students, or "alunos," through the practice and impart cultural values and traditions. Mestres often lead capoeira groups, known as "grupos," and their influence ensures the continuity and evolution of capoeira, fostering community and artistic expression.
