Mestre Lazaro Santos, our founder and master, was born in Bahia, Brazil. He has developed a unique teaching style and a deep understanding of Capoeira through his dedication and experiences. Starting his training at a young age, Mestre Lazaro learned from his Mestre, Grande Mestre Dinho of Grupo Internacional de Capoeira Topazio, who passed down generations of knowledge. Mestre Lazaro persevered as a student and eventually graduated as a Mestre of Capoeira.


His journey then took him across the world, including Europe, Japan, and the USA, where he showcased Capoeira to diverse audiences. Eventually, Mestre Lazaro settled in Central Florida, founding his own Capoeira academy in Orlando. Today, he continues to teach and practice Capoeira, inspiring and guiding our students with his extensive knowledge and experience.

  • What is the role of music and culture in capoeira?

    Music and culture are essential elements of capoeira. Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that combines self-defense, acrobatics, music, and culture in a unique and dynamic way. Capoeira was created by the African slaves in Brazil as a form of resistance and liberation, and it reflects their history, identity, and values. Capoeira is played in a circle, called a roda, where the players take turns to play capoeira with each other, accompanied by music and singing. The music is played with capoeira instruments, such as the berimbau, the pandeiro, the atabaque, and the agogo, and the songs are sung in Portuguese or other African languages. The music and the culture give capoeira its rhythm, energy, and meaning, and they also help our students learn and appreciate the diversity and richness of capoeira.

  • How can I support my child's learning and progress in capoeira?

    There are many ways you can support your child's learning and progress in capoeira. You can encourage your child to attend the classes regularly, practice at home, and participate in the special events, such as workshops, seminars, festivals, and competitions. You can also watch the classes and the rodas, and cheer for your child and their friends. You can also learn more about capoeira and its history, culture, and philosophy, and share your knowledge and interest with your child.
