Capoeira Team Global
Capoeira Team Luxembourg uses capoeira as a cultural, educational, and social tool in Luxembourg and beyond.
Social projects
Capoeira has been used as a means of integration in several projects led with schools, associations, and communities, especially for children from disadvantaged families.
Integration in Luxembourg
Since 2015-2016, the association has taken part in refugee integration projects through capoeira, in collaboration with actors such as the Red Cross, Caritas, ASTM, and the Ministry of Justice.
Meetings and batizados
These projects allow participants to meet other capoeiristas, join a community, and experience powerful moments during rodas and graduation ceremonies.
Central Africa
Since 2010, the association has supported the promotion of capoeira in the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Central African Republic. In 2016, Mestre Pelezinho supervised the first Capoeira Congo batizado.
Bangui 2019
In July 2019, the association organized the first Grand Capoeira Batizado in Bangui, Central African Republic, with the support of UNICEF and UNFPA-CAR.
Personal development
Capoeira supports physical well-being, self-esteem, motivation, and engagement in sports, artistic, and collective activities.
