Our team started helping children early 2004 by empowering and strengthening communities though playing capoeira. This was initially achieved by visiting schools and working in partnership with other charities. Capoeira Academy UK was teaching four classes a week to children in 2008 and following on from this we opened our charity (Capoeira Academy UK Charity-XT12570) to achieve our dreams of assisting children and young people to have a more active and fun childhood through the benefit of capoeira. Since 2008 we have continued to provide children’s capoeira classes both in schools and out of school hours to encourage continuing practice of capoeira and health promotion. This has enabled more than 10 children to participate in our yearly event the “batizado” where their efforts are rewarded with grading belts. Capoeira Academy UK is chaired by Edgar Leite , more frequently known as Instrutor Bombril. Edgar has been teaching capoeira for over 10 years starting in his home town of Albufeira, Portugal under the supervision of his teacher Mestre Namorado. Often a few of Edgar’s experianced students assist in the children’s classes, all of whom are CRB certified.
