What Is Capoeira? The performance What Is Capoeira? begins to answer the very question you might be asking right now. Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that blends dance, acrobatics, and music—a tradition so rich it cannot be captured in a single sentence. Through song, movement, live instruments, and storytelling, we will explore it together, traveling through time and space to uncover its rhythm, resilience, and beauty. Along the way, you will experience the true story of how Aaron “Cherokee” Ellison became known around the world as Instrutor Cherokee.
Join us for this free, family-friendly performance at Barking Legs Theater on December 14 at 4 pm, made possible through generous grant funding from Arts Build.
