Experience the Rhythm, Movement, and Spirit of Capoeira in Scotland

How It All Began…
The Journey of Capoeira 4 Scotland
Capoeira 4 Scotland is the result of years of dedication, experience, and a deep passion for sharing Capoeira with communities across the country. What started as a vision to create an inclusive and accessible space for movement, music, and cultural expression has grown into a thriving community.

We are rooted in the powerful Tucum Capoeira lineage, guided by Contra-Mestre Fiaz (Lobão), and driven by the belief that Capoeira can transform lives – physically, emotionally, and socially.
