Physical Capoeira is a class at the intersection of martial-arts and dance. It is based on movements of traditional and contemporary Capoeira practice and merges them with elements of Budo-Martial-Arts, acrobatics and dance. The participants are encouraged to explore their individual movement, performing abilities, and their creative partnering interaction in a holistic way.
