Bantus Capoeira Singapore is part of Bantus Capoeira’s global network of schools founded by Mestre Pintor who believes that learning Capoeira should be fun.

As such, all our classes cater to all levels (including first-timers!) so that anyone can simply walk into a class and benefit from the training.

At Bantus Capoeira Singapore, our students learn capoeira regional, capoeira angola (for senior students), maculele (a traditional stick fight dance), samba de roda and forro (a traditional Brazilian folkdance which is extremely popular among the young and old in Brazil).

Additionally, our students are also required to learn how to sing in Portuguese and play the instruments that provide the music and rhythm in a roda (a circle where two capoeiristas play).

But the best thing about being in Bantus is belonging to the worldwide family of Bantus Capoeira!
