Capoeira Besouro is a premier Capoeira, Dance, and Martial Arts school located in Santa Monica, California. With classes for all ages, from toddlers to adults, they offer engaging sessions that combine movement, music, and self-defense. Led by Mestre Batata, an experienced instructor who blends the philosophies of both Angola and Regional Capoeira, Capoeira Besouro aims to equip students with the essence of traditional Capoeira while fostering adaptability in any roda they encounter.
Rooted in the indomitable spirit of enslaved Brazilians from the 17th century, Capoeira Besouro goes beyond being just an art form. It is a symphony of self-expression, physicality, and cultural heritage. With a focus on personalized guidance and a supportive community, Capoeira Besouro offers a gateway to a world of movement, music, and martial arts.
