Abada-capoeira DC is serving the community since 2008. We have been a leader in promoting and supporting Brazilian arts and culture through the practice of capoeira, and to use our practice of capoeira and associated arts to build a healthy and more closely connected Washington, DC-area community.

CAPOEIRA (pronounced ka-poo-eyh-rah) is an Afro-Brazilian martial and art self-defense form that brings together fighting techniques, acrobatics, dance, percussion, and songs, in a rhythmic dialogue of body, mind, and spirit.

The Afro-Brazilian martial art of capoeira can make a difference in people’s lives. Capoeira is an all-inclusive activity in which people of all ages, ethnicities and physical levels can exercise together to connect, break down barriers and build community. Capoeira is such an important art expression that it is part of the UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

Come join us and discover the beauty of this art form!
