Leãozinhos: Capoeira Kids Program
Leãozinhos, or little lions, is a program for kids ages five to 12. This capoeira program is based on the award-winning Ginga Kids program from Miami, and it combines the same values of any martial art—like fitness, self-confidence, discipline, and respect—with benefits specific to Capoeira—culture, music, language, dance, and gymnastics—into one great class! It's fun, energetic, and engaging and was designed specially for your child.
Capoeira Decatur understands that children are the future of capoeira. Therefore the Leãozinho program not only gives your child the opportunity to be a great capoeirista, but also great members of the community.

Leãozinhos: Capoeira Kids Class Details
The Leãozinhos program meets twice a week, and you can sign your child up and be billed automatically each month.
Capoeira can challenge and educate your child both physically and mentally. In capoeira classes, your child will develop each of the following traits.
Creativity
Your child will have an outlet for self-expression by learning to play capoeira. The game of capoeira is never choreographed, so your child will always be challenged to be creative and strategic.
Physical fitness
Your child will get a fantastic, comprehensive workout that improves flexibility, coordination, strength, and endurance all while having a whole lot of fun! He or she will also learn cool gymnastic and acrobatic movements.
Personal growth
Through training, capoeira can help your child develop a greater sense of responsibility, greater self-confidence, more discipline, and improved self-esteem.
Social growth
Capoeira is well known for its strong sense of camaraderie and togetherness. Your child will develop social skills and gain great friendships.
Music & language
The benefits of music and language for children are unprecedented. In capoeira, your child will learn to play the traditional capoeira instruments and sing in Portuguese.
Self-respect & confidence
Looking at challenges with a can-do approach is critical to everyone's development. Your child will also learn the importance of taking care of him or herself: avoiding drugs and eating right.
