Capoeira Guanabara is a non-profit sports association offering training in Capoeira—a Brazilian martial art that blends dance, acrobatics, and music.

Expect tough, ground-based training with an acrobatic movement style, high kicks, jump kicks, and spin kicks.

Good to know

• Arrive at least 10 minutes before class to change and greet the group.
• Classes are held at different locations – check each class description.
• The gym entrance is locked, but the instructor will open about 15 minutes before class starts.
• Bring a water bottle and wear comfortable workout clothes. Capoeira is usually practiced barefoot, but indoor shoes without black soles are also fine.
• Bruce members are not covered by the studio’s insurance – please ensure you have your own.
