Dancing Capoeira

Capoeira is a Brazilian art form that mixes dance and combat, rhythm and acrobatic, poetry and self expression. It is celebrated as a ritual activity in a circular area called "roda”.
This Intensive welcomes people of all type to give their very first steps in capoeira.
The participants will be introduced into a friendly atmosphere where everyone will be invited to interact and communicate with each other, sometimes in a group dynamic situation and other times as partner activities, through unusual ways.The foundation is playfulness, so that the most important point is not what you are able to perform but how to enjoy yourself best within your own possibilities and capacities.


Bruno Caverna
Bruno Caverna started capoeira at the age of 10 in Rio de Janeiro by training with several Brazilian Masters like: Peixinho, Nestor Capoeira, Toni Vargas, Gil Velho, Gato, etc. Since 1995 he has been developing his very particular method of teaching it and is not linked with any group or organization. Capoeira, as being part of almost 20 years of his life, has showed a profound way of living. Therefore Caverna has always been enormously enthusiastic to share it with as many people as he can.
