CAPOEIRA
More Than Movement- A Path to Belonging
Capoeira is at the heart of Menino Bom Association: a unique blend of martial art, dance, music, and acrobatics.
Capoeira Training
Our core program offers structured capoeira training sessions for youth ages 6-18, meeting three times weekly in community centers across East Jerusalem. Participants learn traditional movements, music, and the cultural context of capoeira while developing physical fitness, discipline, and teamwork. Beyond physical training, our curriculum incorporates discussions about shared values, conflict resolution, and cultural heritage. The program culminates in community performances where students showcase their skills and achievements
