Capoeira
The added values of capoeira
Sports practice is a real remedy against depression. Capoeira combines physical exercise, music, and community for body-mind balance.
Physical benefits
Exercise releases endorphins, the happiness hormones, and reduces cortisol, the stress hormone.
Social dimension
The capoeira community offers a valuable network of support and friendship for mental health.
Artistic expression
Music, singing, and dance allow emotions to be expressed in a positive way.
Self-confidence
Progression and graduations strengthen self-esteem and a sense of accomplishment.
