Uniform- White abadas and a white capoeira or plain t-shirt will be worn Mondays and Wednesday (this does not apply to beginners).  On Fridays, colored Capoeira shirts or colored plain t-shirts can be worn.  Abadas should be worn clean at all times.

What to bring- Students with cordaos should bring at least one instrument to class.

When to arrive- Students are expected to arrive 5-15 minutes before class begins.

When you arrive- You will enhance your performance and take good care of your body by stretching before class begins. 

Beginners- Introduce yourself to the instructor, fill out a registration form and begin stretching.  You will be separated from the main group to receive specialized attention for the majority of class. 

Latecomers- It is imperative to be on time.  The fundamentals of the lesson are taught during the first half hour.  The rest of the class builds on that.  However, if you find yourself arriving late as sometimes does happen, do pushups and then quickly join the rest of the class. 

Participation- Energy is very important to Capoeira.  When you fully participate in every class you are creating positive energy for the whole class.  Try every movement even if you are you aren’t confident in your ability.  This, of course, does not apply to those with injuries.  Always pay attention to what the teacher is saying and doing, if music is playing make an attempt to follow the lyrics and clap your hands. 

Respect-  The best way to be respectful in Capoeira is to be mindful of your teachers’ instructions, refrain from side conversations, and always give 110% in class.  Keeping these three principals in mind, will help you and your teacher both grow in the Capoeira community.

Personal Hygiene- Make sure you shower before class and wear clean clothes.  It is very important to keep your whites as clean as possible.

Valuables- You are welcome to bring a change of clothing or change into your Capoeira clothes when you get here.  Your items can be set aside near the wall while you train.  Bring plenty of water.  Because we cannot be responsible for lost or stolen items, please bring only what is necessary. 

Consistency- Being consistent is important in your advancement of the art form.  We highly suggest that you attend as many classes as you can and participate in the various social activities as well.  It is also important to learn on your own.  We may not visit all aspects of capoeira all of the time, but to become a well-rounded Capoeirista you will need to: practice at the park, find lyrics online, take a percussion or Portuguese class, go to workshops and batizados, or read a book.  Capoeira is what you make of it, so explore on your own.

Dues- Dues keep our academy running.  We need you to pay dues on time.  Keep in mind that there is a discount to those that have automatic withdrawal (which is always on time).  There is an additional fee for late payment of dues.  If you know you will not be able to attend every class, ask about alternative pay schedules consider buying a 10-class block. 

Community- While Capoeira is run as a class, we very much consider ourselves a community of people with similar interests and philosophies.  As with any community, Capoeiristas will be expected to take up more responsibility with increased rank.  These responsibilities may vary from mopping the floor to hosting a music class in your home or helping to write a grant.  Don’t be afraid to share your talents, they may be just what we need.
