Capoeira Malandragem is a great place to learn capoeira from skilled and experienced instructors with a great community! I’ve learned so much during my time here. Love it!!!!!

I really enjoy training with them, they are a very welcoming family with lots of Axé (good energy). Demanding classes that will test your limits and teach you a lot, great rodas and many experienced capoeristas to play, fight and learn this art with.

I have been training for a few weeks now. The tribe is so supportive. They train hard and still have a good time. I highly recommend Tucson Capoeira – UCA!

amazing teacher! not only in class but in life and community as well.

I was back in Tucson for a few weeks and was happy to take a couple of classes while visiting. The energy and sense of community here is exactly what I would expect from a solid Capoeira program.

Wonderful place to train for adults and children! So many classes to choose from. Wonderful instructors, awesome community hub.

Movement CULTURE. They mean culture. It is wonderful the level of respect shown to the arts here. It’s not just “something to do” for them, it is a way of life.

Great business and space. Owners create an amazing vibe and atmosphere. Community oriented and super fun! Can’t recommend enough.

I thought I knew everything about Capoeira from movies and vids. Contramestre Besouro has opened my eyes to Capoeira’s rich culture past and present. Capoeira is not all about dancing around and flipping like we see in the movies. We learn rhythm, flow and awareness. We learn defensive and offensive moves. And most important we… Read more “nichols4520”
