Capoeira is an art form, fighting method, self-defense, social struggle, sport, dance, folklore, culture and cultural resistance. It is also music, poetry, party, game, philosophy, and wisdom. Above all, it’s a martial art and a cultural and artistic expression of the oppressed black people of Brazil, Capoeira represents the quest for survival, freedom, dignity and identity. Mestre Senna will lead students through a range of movements that create the basis for Capoeira. Intertwined with the movements we will discover the unique history and music of Capoeira.

Advanced Beginning Afro Modern
Day/Time: Sundays  5:00-6:30 pm  
Instructor: Debra McGee  
Cost: $120
This class fuses aspects of African and Afro-Caribbean dance with Modern dance.  The full warm up begins center, then follows with combinations center and across the floor.  The class focuses on the fusion of African movements with Modern dance and the ability to maintain technique/structure while executing each step.  The importance of strengthening and stretching the appropriate muscles is a staple of this movement.  The use of different rhythms, accents, and dynamics are pertinent while maintaining a grounded and centered base.  This class also entails floor work and basic partnering.  Some dance experience recommended.
