Capoeira is a total workout for your body and mind. In my classes, we strip away the competition and focus on rhythm, movement, and learning the game from the ground up.

## About Training, Drills & Class Life

You won't find repetitive, mindless reps here. In our training, I use animal movements to build functional strength and mobility before we transition into sequence-based flows. I teach every movement step-by-step, stacking simple drills like the Ginga or basic cartwheels until they click, so you aren't just memorizing moves. You are building a conversation with your partner.

### How We Train

My approach to Capoeira is simple. We start with the basics to ensure you are safe and comfortable. We use animal flows, stick mobility, and controlled tumbling to wake up your body. Once we have the foundation, we layer on the techniques. 

We focus on these key areas:
* **Ginga & Footwork:** The base of everything we do. It keeps you mobile and ready to play.
* **Escapes & Takedowns:** Learning how to move away from an attack and into a counter-movement. 
* **Sequencing:** We take the individual moves you have learned and string them together into a continuous, flowing game.

### It Is Not Just Exercise

One thing that surprises people is that you also learn the music. A big part of our training involves learning the Pandeiro, Atabaque, and Berimbau. You will learn to sing the songs in Portuguese, which sets the tempo for the game. When the music changes, the intensity of our training changes with it. 

### Where You Can Find Us

I run these sessions across multiple spots in Mumbai and Bangalore, including the Shaolin Temple Warrior Monk Academy in Juhu and Dhurii Academy in Domlur. Whether you are coming for a weekend bootcamp or a regular weekday session, the focus is always the same. We are not here to fight. We are here to play, get stronger, and build a tribe of people who actually enjoy moving together.

No uniforms are required, just bring comfortable clothes and a willingness to try something new.

## About Capoeira Academy

I've been living for Capoeira since I was 14, and it has changed everything for me. My classes are a mix of chaotic fun and technical focus where we turn strangers into a community. Come ready to move, sing, and find your own flow—no experience required.
