This website is for the Capoeira Club at Assumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts.
Since 2002, the goal of the Assumption Capoeira Club has been to introduce students to a unique Brazilian art form. Capoeira combines martial arts, dance, gymnastics, and music into one comprehensive package that is both beautiful and deadly.
The club meets every Tuesday and Thursday from 7pm - 8pm in the Plourde aerobics room. Members of the club learn the movements, history, and philosophy of capoeira. They also promote awareness of the art around campus through performances and demonstrations.
Anyone is welcome to join, regardless of prior experience. Don't be discouraged if you think you "could never do that" because everyone starts somewhere!
