Who We Are
Rooted in Tradition, Growing with Community
At Capoeira Malês North Seattle, we are a vibrant community dedicated to preserving and sharing the art of capoeira with passion and purpose. Led by our experienced master instructor, we embrace the roots of Afro-Brazilian culture through a unique blend of martial arts, music, dance, and acrobatics. Our school has grown from a small group of dedicated students into a vibrant family-centered academy. We combine traditional capoeira training with a contemporary approach, making this ancient art form accessible to everyone. Our focus extends beyond physical training—we create a space where children gain confidence, families bond, and cultural understanding flourishes through martial arts, music, and movement.
