Who we are
Our Brighton Capoeira Angola group was established by Boneco de Sousa in 2002. Together with his three sisters, Boneco has been teaching Capoeira in UK for many years.
​
Boneco and his sisters are known within the capoeira community as the 'Amazonas' family. They are well known in the UK, Europe and Brazil as a dedicated practitioner and welcoming Capoeira Angola school. We regularly collaborate with other UK-based groups and bring guest teachers over from Brazil and Europe.
​
Currently, we offer regular Capoeira Angola classes to all backgrounds and ages in Brighton. We believe that Capoeira brings positive change to people's lives, empower individuals through Afro-Brazilian culture, social awareness, empowerment and mutual respect.
​
Since 2015 we have worked in partnership with Amazonas Arts, a not-for-profit community association bringing the benefits of Capoeira and related activities to schools and community groups.
