A great and experienced teacher, professor Sapulha has over 15 years in the martial art of capoeira and has been teaching his own classes for over 5 years. I have been fortunate to be his friend and his student throughout a great portion of this time. I’ve observed his attention and care that he approaches his students with beyond what could be expected from a teacher. He really cares for students’ progress and development and keeps working on his own, continuing his training and learning process and staying flexible to continue improving on his teaching methods and class format. As a result of great leadership of the group I’ve been very lucky to be a part of a wonderful community of a diverse group of people from many parts of the world. Just an ability to meet people from such diverse cultures and backgrounds gives an opportunity to encounter a unique perspective that i could only compare to traveling. All of this mentioned above makes for a fun, challenging and interactive classroom environment that serves in developing one’s physical, language, mental and many other abilities.

Capoeira is a multi-dimensional art form that involves music, movement and song and it opens the door to learning about the rich history, language and culture of Brazil. Although it’s physically and mentally challenging, it can be practiced by individuals with any level of experience within a diverse and inclusive community. It was a bit intimidating for me at first, since I’ve never practiced any martial art and was surrounded by younger and more experienced students, but Professor Sapulha’s warm and welcoming manner made me feel at ease right away. He is committed to creating a safe, supportive and encouraging space for his students to grow and learn while offering honest feedback and suggestions for improvement along the way. I’ve been training with him for 2.5 years now and it’s been a very rewarding experience all around. It’s helped me push past my self-imposed limits to reveal that I am capable of more than I thought. I highly recommend taking a class!
I've trained with the group for four years. Classes are intense, but really fun if you're looking for a workout! Not only do you learn from the instructors but also from the wonderful community that surrounds you. I highly recommend taking a class if you are looking to try something new, as capoeira combines martial arts, dance and music all in one!
Sapulha has been teaching me and my children capoeira. He is a great teacher and has also helped us to form a great group of players that have become like a second family. I heartily recommend his class to anyone who wants a great workout and also to learn about the art.
Very warm and welcoming community. Works with all levels, and everyone is invested in your mastery. My sons very much enjoy their kids class and look forward to it every Saturday.
I had always been fascinated with capoeira, especially from the movies. When I had the chance to do it, I leapt at the opportunity. My first class was an eye opener. One of the hardest workouts of my life but it was worth it. After months of practice, I have more stamina and a higher knowledge of the martial arts. I recommend everyone try it. You'll learn a lot about yourself and see what you're truly capable of.
Professor Sapulha demonstrates his passion for teaching, and love of the art and science of Capoeira in each and every class. He guides the physical and mental development of his students using the various elements of the martial art. Each student is encouraged and challenged as appropriate for the individual's needs and goals.
Highly recommended. My to older kids (4 and 7) my wife and myself are are part of the group for 3 years and it's a great experience to be part of Sapulha's group. We love the combination of music and martial arts but the most important thing Is how everybody makes you fill like a family . He is very good with the kids and as well with adults.
