This Is What Awaits You
Energy, community, movement — every single class.
You Should Try It
At Least Once
Capoeira is not a sport. It is not just a martial art. It is a living culture — born in Brazil, forged through resilience, and practiced today by people of every age and background around the world.
In one class you will move your entire body, hear live music, feel the energy of a circle, and leave with a smile you did not expect. It is the kind of experience that is almost impossible to describe — you have to feel it.
Built For Your Life
Whether you want to get fit, reduce stress, build confidence, or simply find something you actually enjoy doing — Capoeira delivers on all of it.
- Full-body conditioning — strength, flexibility, and cardio in every session
- Mental sharpness — reading your partner, reacting, staying present
- Emotional balance — music, movement, and community calm the nervous system
- Self-defense awareness built naturally through the game
- A community that genuinely supports your growth
Our Program Delivers
A structured, progressive journey — not just random classes. Here is what you can expect from day one.
Structured Curriculum
Clear progressions from beginner to advanced. You always know what you are working toward and how to get there.
Small Group Classes
Personalized attention in every session. Mestre Julio knows every student by name and adjusts training to your level.
Music & Culture
Learn the instruments, the songs, and the history. Capoeira is a complete cultural experience, not just a workout.
Real Community
Students who become friends. Events, workshops, and rodas that bring everyone together outside of regular classes.
Belt Progression
A clear ranking system that celebrates your milestones. Batizados (graduation ceremonies) are unforgettable events.
For All Fitness Levels
Complete beginners train alongside advanced students. Every movement can be scaled. You will never feel out of place.
Meet Mestre Julio
Cabeção
Julio Arruda dos Santos
Julio Arruda dos Santos began his Capoeira journey nearly 30 years ago in Brazil, training under some of the most respected Mestres in the tradition. His path took him across continents — performing, competing, and teaching — before he brought his art to South Florida and founded Evolve Miami Team.
As a Mestre, Julio holds the highest rank in Capoeira. He has trained thousands of students — from toddlers to adults — and built one of the most respected Capoeira communities in Miami. His teaching philosophy blends authentic Brazilian tradition with modern pedagogy: rigorous technique, genuine care for each student, and a deep respect for the culture that gave birth to this art.
When you train with Mestre Julio, you are not just learning movements. You are connecting to a living lineage that stretches back hundreds of years.
Not Just Another Martial Arts Class
Most fitness classes give you a workout. We give you a complete human experience — body, mind, culture, and community, all in one place.
Authentic Lineage
Mestre Julio trained in Brazil under true Mestres. Every technique, song, and ritual comes from an unbroken tradition — not a YouTube tutorial.
Body-First Conditioning
Before acrobatics, we build the foundation. Strength, mobility, and body awareness are developed systematically so you progress safely and sustainably.
The Game, Not Just Moves
Capoeira is a dialogue between two people. We teach you to read, respond, and express — not just execute techniques in isolation.
Music as a Tool
The berimbau controls the energy of the game. Learning to play and sing is part of the curriculum — it changes how you move and how you think.
Community by Design
Events, rodas, and batizados are built into the program. Your growth is celebrated publicly, and the community holds you accountable.
Every Class Is A Complete Experience
Each session is structured to build you up progressively — from warm-up to technique to the roda. Here is what a typical class looks like:
Real Stories From Real People
"It only took me one class to realize: capoeira is a very complete activity. It works my body, pushes my reflexes, activates the vagus nerve during singing — and gives me a joyful community. I felt transported to a completely different world."
"Our entire family has been taking capoeira classes with Evolve Miami Team, and the experience has been truly transformative. What we found isn't just a place to train — it's a community that uplifts and motivates you to grow."
"I began training 4 months ago as a complete beginner. I was hesitant, thinking it was beyond my physical abilities — but I was wrong! Capoeira is genuinely for every body. I've already seen improvements in strength, flexibility, and overall athleticism."
"If you're looking for something physical that not only gets your body in shape and tests your mind, this is it! Mestre Julio is a master of his craft who blends having a good time with learning the technique and mindset of capoeira."
"My journey began almost a year ago when I stumbled upon this community seeking change. What I found exceeded my expectations — a supportive family, rich culture, captivating music. This school is more than a martial arts academy — it's an adventure."
"At 34 years old, I have never felt better. He breaks down training in a way that builds condition through different stages. Hands down, the best capoeira experience I have found."
