Capoeira is great here. The friendly staff and supportive environment make it a safe place for families to come and enjoy themselves.
Welcoming environment, skillful teachers, wonderful community of people... overall outstanding place to learn and practice capoeira!
I have been training with this Capoeira Academy for 4 years. It is an excellent space that is family friendly. The students are very welcoming and it is a great place to learn.
I've visited many capoeira schools in New Jersey and this is by far the best capoeira experience I've had in the area. If you are looking to get started with a friendly group and teacher, I highly recommend this place.
My three kids and I train here every week. Great people, truly knowledgeable instructors and a really sense of community. This is a great place.
Afro Brazilian Cultural Center of New Jersey is a great place to learn Capoeira, Zumba, Samba, Yoga, etc and this place is welcoming to anyone of all-age. The classes at the academy are engaging, fun, exciting, and you won't be able to stop learning AND playing. Plus, the environment is very friendly and the teachers are professionals; you can learn a great deal of skills, lessons, and activities from these guys. I have spent my time training with my capoeira teachers and students and I can tell that you won't be disappointed. Highly recommended to anyone!
My son has been part of the ABCCNJ family from first grade to his present 11th. Meistre Gaivota is a great leader whose motto "If you're not smiling, you're doing it wrong" is infectious! There is a great spirit about this place and the capoeristas who make it a community. Capoeira is a beautiful art, and a cultural, musical and physical activity all in one.
Not only is there amazing energy , but everyone there will treat you like family ! I definitely recommend coming in and try a capoeira class!
I have been taking Capoeira classes here since 2007 and I can honestly say that the Capoeira here is awesome. The teacher Mestre Gaivota is a wealth of knowledge in both the physical side of this awesome martial art but also on the history and music side as well. The community that has grown here over the years has become like a second family. I have watched some of the students literally grow up before my eyes. Not only will you learn this awesome martial art there but you will be instilled with a sense of community and grow as a person. While I have been focusing on Capoeira the studio also has a variety of other classes as well.
