About Ancestrais Capoeira

Ancestrais Capoeira brings the energy, music and movement of Brazilian capoeira to Perth, training from Studio Ancestrais in Cannington. More than a workout, capoeira blends martial arts, acrobatics, music and culture, and this club leans fully into that tradition, teaching not only the physical game but Brazilian Portuguese, singing and performance alongside it.

Classes cater to kids, youth and adults, with a notably welcoming, family-friendly feel that even includes sessions where children and their parents can train together. Members praise the relaxed, friendly atmosphere and the kindness shown to newcomers, with advanced capoeiristas happy to help beginners find their feet. It's a strong all-round workout too, building core strength, agility, coordination, flexibility and confidence.

The club is led by an experienced mestre regarded as one of Brazil's best, giving students access to authentic instruction in a discipline that rewards patience and play. Flexible training times suit varied schedules, including shift workers, and the affordable, community-minded approach makes it an accessible entry point for anyone in Perth's south-east curious about capoeira. With beginners currently being welcomed, it's an inviting place to start.
