Capoeira New Orleans

What can I say? Capoeira is great. It provides an unparralled physical outlet: do it long enough, and you’ll be doing Spider Man stuff; it is a great opportunity to meet new people; it’s awesome for learning a new language (Portuguese); it’s amazing for learning music, history, and culture.
The instructor, Mestrando Cocado, is fantastic too. He is patient for his students to learn new things, but he doesn’t allow you to become comfortable. He is always pushing you to push yourself. It gets kind of annoying when you just want to curl up and be lazy, but it’s the right thing to do and the right direction to go.
The group is always active and doing events outside of class, but if you just want to do class, that’s fine too. I give it five stars, which I am not apt to do for many things.
Actually, the address is 1200 Magazine Street. I guess they haven’t updated the addy.
