WHAT IS YOUR GOAL?

It can be hard to choose among group fitness, dance, martial arts, music, visual arts, and other hobbies. You might be part of a community for each interest but lack connection among them.

Capoeira includes all these elements, and much more. It stimulates both sides of the brain and every part of the body. And it’s fun!

We believe that quality over time makes the difference.

The 4 bases of our program:

First and foremost we focus on movement quality; results will naturally follow. Classes are energetic, in constant motion, mixing cardio and strength work. We combine hard work with fun! The workouts are also great for developing flexibility, endurance, and coordination. Capoeira is a complete workout that helps develop both physical and mental capacities. Most importantly, it’s functional, helping students in your daily routine. 

Not everyone is a fighter, or wants to be. But most people who see capoeira are fascinated and impressed! We created a program where you can learn the martial arts concept behind capoeira in a safe but challenging way. Capoeira was developed as a fight disguised as a dance. You will learn how to defend yourself in a fun and dynamic way, becoming more confident in your movements and your capabilities. 

Evolve places great value on the cultural aspect of capoeira. We deeply respect capoeira’s history and how we came to be where we are today. We teach students this history, raising awareness and understanding about the meaning behind what we do and the way we do it. Our passion shows, as does our knowledge about capoeira and Brazilian culture, and this makes the community trust even more in our work.

We believe strongly in the power of people: working together, supporting each other, and supporting our community. Our program encourages relationship- and community-building. Capoeira is played in pairs, so classes are based on teamwork. Students share their unique strengths and perspectives to help each other learn and grow, creating a safe and enjoyable environment.
