Salt Lake Capoeira
Capoeira began over 500 years ago when the Africans who were taken to Brazil and enslaved trained to fight while disguising it as a dance. Today, Mestre Jamaika teaches kids through adults of all levels, all aspects of Capoeira: strength, flexibility, movement, endurance, coordination, vocal and instrumental skills, cultural awareness, confidence, teamwork, and community. In this authentic Capoeira class, we seek to improve our physical and mental health as we work together to strengthen our community. We invite you to try a Capoeira class and see how your life can be transformed with Capoeira lessons and new friends.

Enjoy the freedom to explore your own capacity and potential in this unique Pole Dance Choreography class that brings in the spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical.

To wrap up the class, we'll stretch out the body before finishing up with some breathwork. All my classes include a metaphysical twist, so expect some woo woo stuff to help you play with moving and releasing emotional energy trapped within your body! Bring: An open mind, a water bottle, a pair of tight-fitting shorts/sports bra and baggy layers (sweat pants and socks) to keep up body temperature during warm-up and cool-downs.

5.0 Dude, I Didn’t Even Know What to Expect 🤯
dude . . . for real, where do I start here? I’ve never done dance or martial arts, so I had no idea what to expect walking into Mestre Jamaika’s Capoeira class. All I knew was that I’d seen him perform before, and it was the most unique movement I’d ever witnessed—I knew I had to try it. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by so many welcoming faces. The vibe is unreal—it’s full of love, warmth, and a real sense of community. You don’t just show up to learn Capoeira; you show up to make friends. Mestre Jamaika’s instruction is super clear, and even though I felt awkward and out of my element at first, he helped me settle in quickly, even in a larger class. He’s patient, intuitive, and seriously skilled at what he does. He knows how to guide you without pressure, and you can feel how much he cares about your growth. If you’re looking to experience something totally new, learn from someone genuine, and open your eyes to another culture, Mestre Jamaika is the guy to know. It’s been an amazing way to move my body and explore something I never thought I’d do!
