New Capoeira Beginners Class
Fri 28th Jan
Date: Fridays - starting from 28th Jan 2011
Time: 7pm-8pm
Course Length: 4 weeks
Level: Beginners Capoeira
Free 1st Class - no obligation
Learn Capoeira at Salsa Latina, Free 1st class & for all ages, male & females. Everyone is welcome, so bring some friends.
Capoeira is a unique art that combines martial arts, acrobatics and dance movements to the beat of traditional brazilians instruments.For all ages & is oriented atmosphere that promotes health and fitness for life.
Capoeira
is a Brazilian Art Form, which combines elements of dance,
play and ritualistic fighting. It evolved from the struggle
of African slaves against their oppressors and its history
is deep with Warrior rituals from Central Africa. Capoeira is a celebration of life
in the face of everyday struggle. It develops confidence,
combined with a strong feeling of centre and balance.
Capoeira's circular and evasive movements, combined with
its rich tradition of music and song, place it in a unique
position as an art, and always poses the question "is
Capoeira a game, a fight or a dance"? Capoeira games require the grace and
agility of a dancer, with the strength and skill of a warrior.
Always central to the message of Capoeira is unity and
bringing people together to keep continual flow regardless
of the game and to find peace, joy and fulfillment in the
game and in life.
Teacher: Capoeira Classes at Salsa latina in Christchurch are taught by Pontual and supervision of Professor Perere. (also portuguese language help available) contact directly on: 0210407863 or Contact Salsa latina for more information
