Ignite Teens (11-17)
What to Expect
In a teen capoeira class, expect a dynamic and unique experience that combines physical conditioning, exciting techniques, and musicality to engage and inspire. Teens will refine their capoeira skills, participate in virtual partner and group activities, and delve deeper into the cultural and historical aspects of capoeira, fostering personal growth and a sense of community.
A typical teen capoeira class will consist of a welcome and check-in, warm-ups (often incorporating capoeira rhythms and music), technique focus, a game, partner work or conditioning challenge, and a closing. Techniques will consist of beginner kicks, esquivas (dodges), and tricks, and how to connect these together to use with a partner and "flow" in a capoeira game.
