What You'll Get
Whoever said knowledge is power never possessed a monster truck. Accelerate your learning with this Groupon.
$28 for Eight Dance, Martial Arts, and Cultural Classes (Up to $120 Value)
This Groupon is valid for any of the center's classes, which range from capoeira, samba, Zumba, zouk, Afro-Brazilian dance, hip hop, cardio carnival, interval fitness, and funky Brasil to belly dancing, kickboxing, and parkour—the practice of moving through an environment using the human body to traverse obstacles.
Brasil Brasil Cultural Center
Founded in 1989 by Mestre Amen Santo—the choreographer who added a touch of authenticity to the capoeira scenes in 1993’s Only The Strong —Brasil Brasil Cultural Center hosts classes in Brazil’s signature martial art alongside lessons in other multicultural disciplines. Like a fight with the cast of a variety show, capoeira combines martial artistry, dance, and acrobatics, fusing them into a stylized Afro-Brazilian art form. To complement capoeira sessions—available to adults as well as children aged 4 and older—instructors also teach Portuguese language classes, health classes and dance classes. Students can also cut rugs in dance styles such as the samba, West African dance, and belly dancing, and youngsters can get their first taste of Brazilian rhythms through workshops with the Ballet Folclórico Do Brasil, a dance company that reaches more than 50,000 children annually.
