Cultural Treasure of Salvador - Capoeira

Experience Authentic Capoeira Where History Was Made! Capoeira is more than a martial art — it is resistance, rhythm, ancestry, and freedom expressed through movement. Capoeira survived centuries of persecution and criminalization to become Brasil's most powerful cultural expression. Your experience takes place at the historic first Capoeira school in Brasil. Training in this legendary space means stepping into an important chapter of Brazilian cultural history. During the class, you will learn fundamental movements, attacks, defenses, body movement, and the dynamics of Capoeira. You will discover how rhythm and music are an essential part of the practice, guiding the movements and the flow. Come ready to move! This is an active, beginner-level class where you will take part in the physical practice. You don't need previous experience, special flexibility, or a particular fitness level. Just come with an open mind, willingness to move, try something new, and enjoy the experience.

Samba is much more than a dance. In Salvador, it carries the rhythms, history, identity, and cultural resistance of Afro-Brazilian communities. This experience invites you to discover samba from its roots, exploring not only the movements but also the music, cultural context, and feeling that bring the dance to life. Unlike classes focused on Rio de Janeiro’s samba, performance-oriented style, our workshop emphasizes the Afro-Brazilian rhythms, musicality, and traditions that shape samba in Bahia. You will learn with local instructors who share the dance as it is experienced in Salvador, connecting movement with rhythm, history, and cultural expression. No previous dance experience or partner is required. Whether you are a beginner or a dancer, this is an opportunity to move, listen, learn, and connect with OUR culture beyond the steps. Come ready to experience samba not simply as choreography, but as a living expression of Bahia’s music, history, and identity!
