is designed to tone muscles, improve posture, increase
flexibility, improve balance and unite the body and mind.

of choice (Mat or Allegro) is a prerequisite to the Intermediate levels.

completed at least one Basics course. The Intermediate classes are a progression
on exercises and skills previously learned.
The Advanced classes are designed for participants who have mastered the
Intermediate level; a strong understanding and performance of skills, as
well as instructor recommendation, is required for Advanced classes. The

Arts
Capoeira
Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian movement that combines dance, acrobatics,
music, and self-defense. Developed by African slaves that were brought
to Brazil, capoeira not only builds physical strength and endurance,
but it is learned in a non-competitive, community environment as
well. Capoeira classes begin with various stretches, warm up cardio
workouts, and strength training such as push-ups and sit-ups. The
movements are then broken down and taught to the students. Every
class ends with “roda” or the circle where capoeira
is “played.” This is where students combine and incorporate
the techniques they learn in class with one another. Wear loose,
comfortable clothing. Matthew Hill
