$10/class and $45 for the workshop (6 classes)
Learn the fundamentals of capoeira including ginga (basic swinging step), esquivas (ducks) and kicks. We will then move on to floor movements, sequences and working in pairs. Basic acrobatics, handstands and bridges will also be introduced. As music is an integral part of capoeira, we will be learning songs in Portuguese and getting familiar with the instruments, including berimbau (single stringed instrument), atabaque (drum), pandeiro (tambourine) and agogo (cow-bells).
Classes will begin with a warm up followed by stretching, strengthening and conditioning exercices specific to capoeira. Next we will familiarize you with movements and terminology through repetition sequences and partner work. Classes will culminate with a roda, which is the circle in which the experience of capoeira is shared. This is where we take all that we have learned and put it into practice along with instruments, singing and clapping. It is recommended to wear comfortable clothing, preferably white and be prepare to train barefoot.For more information and directions to Chez Bushwick, click here or contact bronxcapoeira@gmail.com.
