Capoeira Dende Arts

Overall a great experience from day one. The environment is peaceful, the teacher is very attentive and knowledgeable and the regulars are kind people who don’t mind spending extra time to help you understand. Calado has reached out to me directly to give feedback as well as study guides and links to further my practice. 10/10 would recommend whether you’re seriously interested in Capoeira or just looking for new things to try.

I started my capoeira classes with Calado around 6 months ago, and have had an amazing experience ever since. Each class is designed to cater to the participants, and various capoeira moves are taught with variations for students at different levels. Calado also makes sure to share relevant documents and videos to spread the knowledge about this art, which helps to keep students motivated. In addition, everyone in the class is very friendly and welcoming. I have always recommended this class to my friends, and will continue to do so.

Great class! Challenging, but so much fun! Would definitely return. The instructor is very passionate and knowledgeable about Capoeira. He also makes the class easy to follow, which is great for those (like me) who have no prior experience. After one class, I feel like I've already learned so much. Make sure to bring water because it is a serious work out.

Chris is a great instructor who has a wealth of experience in physical fitness with a constant thirst to learn more and transfer those teachings into class. His teaching skills are showcased by his ability to work with anyone regardless of their physical fitness level and let them have a great workout while enjoying and appreciating Capoeria. With my time attending Chris’s class, I gained a plethora of stretches and exercises that are fun to do at home. Definitely worth checking out if your in the mood to have a fun and diverse workout!

I recently had the privilege of taking a Capoeira class with a truly exceptional instructor, Calado (Chris), and I couldn't be happier with my experience. Calado is knowledgeable, passionate, and extremely talented in the art of Capoeira. Not only did Calado has a deep understanding of the techniques and movements involved in Capoeira, but he also brought a fun and energetic spirit to the class. He made learning a new skill exciting and engaging, and I was always eager to attend each session. Calado provided clear and concise instructions, and was always available to provide individualized feedback and support. He encouraged us to push ourselves and strive for improvement, and I could see my own progress as the class went on. The overall atmosphere was supportive and inclusive, and I felt welcomed and valued as a member of the class. I would highly recommend this Capoeira class with Calado to anyone who is looking to learn a new skill or improve their abilities in this amazing art form.
