Welcome to Capoeira York !
Capoeira is a unique Brazilian martial art which dates back 500 years. Combining music, dance and self-defence, it helps to increase agility, flexibility, strength, speed and coordination.
Originally developed by African slaves in Brazil, the movements were disguised as a dance to fool the slaves' owners and allow the tradition to continue. Today, this has evolved into a highly acrobatic sport which has become popular all over the world.
Capoeira York was set up in April 2005, as part of the Brazilian Guardioes Brasileiros school. We currently have around twenty regular members attending up to three sessions a week. We also run classes at the University of York, as the University of York Capoeira Club. Anyone is welcome to come along and join in!
Capoeira York is part of MAFCUK (Martial Arts and Fitness Coach UK).
