Yama No Kaze Karate-Do

Capoeira is a martial art and a form of Brazilian cultural expression, but above all it is a game! Developed in Brazil by African slaves, capoeira today includes dance, acrobatics, music, singing and aspects of martial arts. Capoeira is a very physical activity, but one where each individual can find their own place, style and expression. A fun and interactive art form, capoeira can help in improving self-esteem, creativity and communication skills. Mestre Piolho has used the name Balanço na Ginga in all of his events since 2009. In 2019 Mestre Piolho founded Balanço na Ginga Capoeira School, a new path in which he shares all the great experience and knowledge he has gained along with his capoeira mestre and the capoeira community.
