Have you ever wanted to try Capoeira? Maybe you’ve never even heard of it. Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that has long history among African slaves. It was illegalized and disguised as a dance for many years, and bears this influence today, as capoeira is played in a circle accompanied by musical instruments and songs. Maybe you’ve seen capoeiristas playing in public. You’d recognize them by the kicks, flips, handstands, and other acrobatic movements.
Capoeira Gerais is having an Open House next Monday, June 9th, in Boston at Boston Ultimate Fitness (aka Nam Pai Academy) at 7:30 PM. Contra-Mestre Coreba is originally from Brazil and previously taught capoeira in Spain and Switzerland.
Boston Ultimate Fitness is located in Chinatown at 33 Harrison Ave, on the 7th Floor, upstairs from Nick the Tailor (but take the elevator): http://www.yelp.com/biz/boston-ultimate-fitness-boston
If you can’t come to the open house but would still like to take a class, you can come any Monday or Wednesday at 7:30. Classes are an hour in length. Or, check Contra-Mestre Coreba’s schedule on www.capoeirageraisusa.com
Make sure to wear or bring comfortable clothing and sneakers. A TOWEL and WATER strongly recommended, because you are going to sweat! (if you forget the water, there are vending machines and a water fountain at the gym)
