Lancaster Capoeira

Lancaster Capoeira Authentic Brazilian martial arts and music for kids and adults! Classes are fun and friendly. Come try your first class for free! We also provide Kids' Classes!

Class description:
Capoeira is a 400 year old Brazilian martial art developed by African Slaves as a means of entertainment, self-defense, and cultural preservation. This multifaceted system of physical discipline utilizes rhythm, dance, storytelling, acrobatics, and fighting to create a rich and mystical game played between two practitioners. Students can expect a challenging cardio workout, adap

ted to the needs of each student. Regular practitioners can see rapid improvement in physical stamina, strength, and flexibility. Students are also exposed Brazilian culture and history, music and exotic instruments, and a positive atmosphere with outgoing fellow students. Each year also offers the opportunity for dedicated students to receive a cord (capoeira's version of a belt) under the internationally recognized Cordao De Ouro system. Our popular kids classes have the same physical and cultural offerings as the adults, but geared towards younger minds and bodies. This class is a fun way to get your kids moving, while also learning respect and discipline. Price for classes:
Monthly cost for adult classes is $75 for adults and $50 for kids. We also offer a $15 drop-in rate for any of our classes for those who are unable to make a monthly commitment. Bio:

He began his training in Lancaster under Instructor (now Professor) Carlos Rodriguez in 2008, and today operates his studio under direct supervision of the acclaimed Mestre Virgulino of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

As my grandfather loves to say, “that’s the price you pay when you play.” I fell off my long board and gave myself a type 3 ac joint separation. The last few weeks have been super painful, but it’s been a good experience. Seeing these things as negative is a choice. Life is all opportunities. I’ve had the opportunity to receive love and guidance from people who care about me. It’s been a long time since I’ve been this motivated to get stronger and better. 5 more weeks in this damn sling, then I can start killing it in rehab. I want to be stronger and better at Capoeira at the end of this year than I was at the beginning. Stay strong people! Love is the answer. ❤️❤️

Everyone:

Capoeira classes are suspended for now. Most of you know my wife Millie is a nurse at UPMC Lititz. This puts us at a high risk of getting this bug when it comes around. Out of an abundance of caution, we’re going keep our distance.

Payments are suspended while we are closed. Please fill out the forms you got this week. If you can scan and send them to me, that would be awesome. If not, please contact me so we can plan how to get them to me.

Stay safe everyone! Feel free to hit me up with any questions or concerns.
