New capoeira classes at Georgia Tech
Starting May 24th, Capoeira Decatur is opening up a new training location: At Georgia Tech. The plan is to have these programs run per semester just as we've done at Emory, and hopefully we'll see the program at Georgia Tech grow. Tech classes are offered through Tech's G.I.T. FIT program, and these classes are open to anyone with a buzz card for $60 for the entire semester.
