Capoeira Cordão de Ouro

Wonderful well-rounded teaching. Calado does a great job of breaking down movements so they're accessible to people at every level. His motivation and dedication are evident, and he will happily take the time to explore and explain concepts, whether relating to capoeira movement, music, or history. Highly recommend!

Calado is an excellent teacher who looks to stretch the boundaries of capoeira knowledge for beginners and experts alike. By also focusing on stretches, students learn habits that ensure their safety while trying out new moves. While classes are currently online, the interactive teaching environment and the variety of moves taught keeps classes exciting.

So happy I found this class! Even online (COVID times...) the teacher is easy to follow, motivating and has a great energy! The movements can be hard and challenging but I feel like it’s well adapted to my level!nThanks Calado!!

I signed up for the three introductory classes after a demo class at the Manhattan Library. Most worth it course I've signed up for in the city.nnThe classes have been super fun and very accessible. The teacher provides great steps to progress towards the moves and even as a beginner I was able to follow along in class. Lots of personal attention and helpful instruction.

I’m very happy to have found this class and can recommend it to anyone who wants to get started with Capoeira. Trying something new can be intimidating, but Calado broke down the movements in a very clear and easy to understand way. He led us through several warm ups that emphasized balance and flexibility. I will certainly want to incorporate these into my personal training regime.
