Capoeira, an afro-diasporic artform hosted by Akil, originated in Brazil among enslaved Africans. A powerful blend of music, dance, martial arts, and Afro-Brazilian culture, it served as a form of resistance and cultural expression. Initially outlawed in 1890 post the abolition of slavery, capoeira was later legalized in 1940. Today, this artform is globally practiced and has even made its way into popular culture through films like “Only the Strong” and “The Protector,” as well as video games such as the “Tekken” and Street Fighter series. With almost 12 years of practice and over 9 years of teaching experience, Akil Gameleira George offers workshops focusing on basic movements, capoeira music, and songs. Having taught all age groups and trained under various renowned instructors, Akil tailors his teaching to the individual physical abilities of each student, regardless of their skill level. The upcoming Capoeira event will take place in Queens at the Daya Ridgewood venue on March 9, 2024, with entry by donation.
