The Michigan Center for Capoeira — Local services in Farmington Hills

I’ve been a student at The Michigan Center for Capoeira for over a month and I’ve enjoyed my time for sure. Capoeira is a Brazilian mixture of martial arts and dance. They have beginner level classes, more advance, music class ( learning lyrics and how to play different types of instruments ) and well as classes for teens and kid classes.

I came in with 0 dance or coordination ability, and yet Baz ,the teacher, had patience to help me learn capoeira as well as help from some of the more advanced students. The people there will help you, no need to be worried that you won’t be helped!

Before each lesson, we do warm ups, some similar to the picture I attached so to avoid any strains! Remember to warm up or you will feel it!

10/10. The place is worth the time spending to learn capoeira and being part of a community of people across different ages and different cultures.

Obrigado or tudo...

UPDATE on 3/7/25 Now at MCFC Arlette offers zumba classes!!!! There is a free intro class on this Saturday, International Women's Day 3/8/25. I hope a lot of new ladies will realize how awesome this class is and they will sign up to return. I’ve been doing zumba only for a few months but already feel the difference. I have more energy and started working out at home too. Thanks to Arlette! ❤️👍

I believe, the only Capoiera studio in the area. Baz’s studio also offers Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and regular exercise classes for adults, which I also joined. My son loves Capoeira. His classes are great with wonderful kids and he also has adult capoeira classes as well. The Capoiera community is very supportive and friendly environment. Don’t quote me on this but I believe he offers a free one week introductory classes for you to try and decide. Try it!...

First time trying capoeira and had a fantastic experience. Phenomenal workout taught in a fun and safe way - instructors emphasize proper techniques and walk around to critique and tailor to all experience levels. The biggest draw is this capoiera school's community. Everyone was so nice, and the vibe felt tight knit and inclusive.

I have been working out for several years and have tried multiple types of classes, but this capoeira class gave the most thorough warmup, spending time on every major joint, and gave me a great introduction to techniques I have been wanting to learn for YEARS (handstand, high kick). I recommend these instructors at this group class without reservation. Call for current class schedule, but as of today they have classes on Monday night, Wednesday night, Thursday night and...
