Capoeira grounded in music, movement, and community.

Learn, practice and play capoeira in the Southend and Leigh-on-Sea area, with Professor Cachorro, part of the Grupo Luanda family.

We provide a welcoming, inclusive and encouraging space for you to develop your skills and knowledge.

In the words of Mestre Ezequiel, Capoeira e pra homen, menino e mulher.

Our approach

We understand capoeira to be a lived practice that goes beyond the two people playing together — Capoeira combines movement, music, and group interaction.

Classes are structured, welcoming, and a place for all to develop and explore and enjoy Capoeira. 

We focus on the fundamentals of movement, music, and the jogo, the game — with mutual respect and shared energy.
