- Getting Here: Near Mount Baker Station, with public transit access, street parking, and paid parking at Mount Baker Station Park & Ride.
More Than a Workout
Capoeira brings martial art, movement, music, culture, and community into one practice. It challenges your body, keeps your mind engaged, and offers something a traditional gym cannot: the energy of learning and growing with other people.
Movement & Martial Art
Build strength, balance, coordination, and confidence through a martial art that never feels routine.
Music & Culture
Learn the songs, rhythms, instruments, history, and living traditions that make Capoeira more than movement.
Community & Belonging
Train with people who learn together, encourage one another, and bring the roda to life.
New to Capoeira? You are exactly where you should be. Our instructors make the fundamentals approachable so you can start at your own pace, build coordination and confidence, and become part of a welcoming Seattle community. No martial arts, dance, or music experience is required.
Founded in 1986 as the first Capoeira school in the Pacific Northwest, Seattle Capoeira Center carries a deep Capoeira Angola tradition. Our Rainier Valley home brings that legacy forward as a place for training, music, rodas, workshops, and the community that gives the art its life.
