Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that combines dance, music, acrobatics and martial techniques.

Developed by enslaved Africans in Brazil, Capoeira disguises martial art forms through the medium of dance. With flowing kicks and synchronised sequences, Capoeira displays inspiring style of movement.

The session will be an introduction to the movements and expressions within capoeira. Movements that represent the water, plants and wildlife of Brazil accompanied by vibrant songs and fun games!

The workshop is designed to be accessible for everyone. Find out about Access at Nottingham Playhouse here and please tell us if there is anything further we can do to ensure our sessions are accessible for you. You can get in touch at participation@nottinghamplayhouse.co.uk.
