OUR MISSION STATEMENT:

Capoeira Santa Fe provides programs, opportunities and services to everyone interested in the Brazilian art form, capoeira. It educates people of diverse ages and backgrounds through physical trainings, workshops, ongoing classes, public performances, and other productions, including dance and music.

a) Support independent initiatives of capoeiristas, regardless of their group affiliation.

b) Coordinate ongoing cultural programming, in part through outreach into the schools and to the public in general.

c) Cultivate the practice of respect, tolerance, and nonviolence among practitioners.

d) Pursue a lively and high level capoeira exchange in Santa Fe and beyond.

e) Further cultural exchange, in particular with capoeiristas from and in Brazil.
