Why Salvador?
Why here?
Capoeira is more than a sport—it's culture, history, and resistance. Originally developed as a fighting technique by enslaved Africans, capoeira was disguised as a dance to continue its practice. Today, it is an expression of Afro-Brazilian identity—and one of Brazil's most important folk sports.
With your stay, you are not only supporting your own development, but also a local social project: The Capoeira school Engenho works actively with street children, offering them a home and prospects.
Your participation helps directly.
