Our students love us! 

Been training at Capoeira Academy for a year now, and under Prof Bombril for another year on top of that.

The group brings an amazing energy, you’re actively and constructively pushed to your limits and beyond them, and our Professors – Bombril and Buiu – are outstanding, with frequent bonus teachers from other groups visiting or leading. .

Capoeira Academy UK student, Google Review

My journey into Capoeira is very personal. I had recovered from a long term football injury, was struggling to balance work and home lives and I was losing focus on important values.

My first Capoeira class was so amazing, and I have never looked back.

I am as fit as I have ever been, I have restored pride in my own abilities. The confidence gained through Capoeira has helped me socially (the guys and girls are all amazing people!), at home (great for family) and at work.

I have even experienced minor sporting success through Capoeira by travelling to Portugal and winning a European championship, and was able to go to Brazil and win a second place in a world championship..

I have been practicing capoeira around the world for the last 12 years. When I moved to London a few years ago, I started training with Profesor Bombril at Capoeira Academy UK. I received a warm welcome from the team and 2,5 amazing years followed.

Professor Bombril’s dedication, motivation and knowledge helped me up level my game and physical condition. And I had such a great time doing it! On top of that, it’s a lovely community and a great way to meet people. I would totally recommend the class!

Capoeira beginners FAQ’s

I am a complete beginner, which lessons can I attend?

You are welcome to join the Monday and Wednesday classes at 8pm, as well as the Friday class at 6pm.

How do I pay for a class, monthly pass or special deal?

Single drop-in classes can be paid directly to the teacher in cash or by card before the class starts. Alternatively, you can make the payment through our website. For monthly passes or special deals, please contact us to receive the online payment details. It is important to complete the payment prior to starting the classes. We recommend arriving 10 minutes before the class to meet the teachers and get changed.

Do I need to be flexible and fit to try capoeira?

Not particularly. You will gain all the skills, strength, flexibility, balance and co-ordination you need through basic training. Feeling unfit is just another reason to come to class!

What kind of footwear do I need?

We train in bare feet, but if you want to train in any footwear we would recommend light trainers or martial art shoes as they are light weight and don’t have too much grip.

Do you offer private lessons?

Yes we do. You can book these as a one-off session or in blocks of ten, for individuals or couples. Please talk to Edgar ‘Bombril’

Do you offer any special deals or trials?

Yes we do. These are updated regularly so please click here to access our most recent deals.

What shall I bring to the lesson?

We recommend bringing a water bottle and a towel to class. The gym is equipped with shower facilities and lockers for your convenience.

Please wear sport trousers or leggings and a t-shirt to class. Shorts are not permitted.

Do I need to book in advance?

We have a spacious studio so it is normally ok to drop-in to a class and pay when you arrive to Monday, Wednesday and Friday class. It is advisable to arrive 10 minutes before the class to meet the teachers and get changed.

Do I need a uniform?

At first you can simply train in comfortable gym gear – no shoes required. If you decide to train with us on a regular basis, you will need to get the official Capoeira Muzenza uniform, as you cannot perform with us or participate in the grading festival without this.

What capoeira styles do you offer?

Capoeira Muzenza teaches the traditions and fundaments of both Capoeira Angola and Regional, Maculele, Samba de roda and other expressions of the capoeira world, which are part of Brazilian culture.

I practise capoeira elsewhere, can I come and train with you?

You are more than welcome to train with us, please bring your uniform and belt if applicable.
