About us
Capoeira Zoador Thailand: Martial Arts, Music & Community
Welcome to the official Meetup group of Capoeira Zoador Thailand!
We are a vibrant branch of the international Capoeira Zoador family, with a strong presence across Asia in Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, and Thailand. Our mission is to share the rich culture of Afro-Brazilian Capoeira with everyone—from Thai locals to the diverse expat community living in the Land of Smiles.
🥋 What is Capoeira?
Capoeira is a unique Brazilian art form that defies categorization. It is often described as a "martial art disguised as a dance." In our sessions, you will experience:
Dynamic Movement: Kick, dodge, and flow with grace and power.
Acrobatics: Improve your flexibility, balance, and core strength.
Music & Rhythm: Learn to play traditional instruments like the Berimbau and sing iconic Capoeira songs.
The "Roda": The circle where we bring all the elements together in a high-energy game of skill and wit.
🌏 Why Join Capoeira Zoador?
A Global Network: By joining us, you aren't just joining a local gym; you are connecting with a regional network. Our members often travel and train together across our Asian branches.
All Levels Welcome: Whether you are an absolute beginner who has never done a cartwheel, or an experienced martial artist, our classes are designed for everyone.
Community & Culture: Meet people from all over the world. We aren't just a class; we are a community that hangs out, shares meals, and celebrates together.
Fitness with Soul: Forget the boring treadmill. Get a full-body workout while learning a new language (Portuguese) and a new culture.
📍 Join Our Next Session!
We host regular classes and "Rodas" (open circles) in Bangkok, Phuket and throughout Thailand. Whether you're here for a week or a lifetime, come and "play" with us!
"Capoeira is for men, women, and children; the only ones who don't learn it are those who don't want to." — Mestre Pastinha
