Capoeira Lesson
Capoeira is an African-Brazilian
martial art/dance developed by slaves for their defense as
well as their mental and physical balance. It works every
muscle in your body. Its practice has grown internationally
in the last few years, and you can get a taste for it in a
lesson or two with master Nestor in his academy. Single lessons
(2 hours) are available at 7pm every day of the week for R$30
each.

Dance Lessons
You can either sit around waiting for
the sun to come out, or you can go learn a few dance moves!
Really! Just call and schedule private lessons (individual
or group). Dance lessons last 2 hours, and should be enough
to last a lifetime of showing off.
Your options of dance lessons are: Samba
(Samba de Pe), Ballroom samba, Zouk (a new, more sensual Lambada)
and Forro.
