About Capoeira Institute Southwest
We inspire Tucson and the Southern Arizona region to strengthen our communities by engaging in the thrilling Afro-Brazilian arts of capoeira, music, dance, and Brazilian culture. We provide in-school programs, workshops and event participation to economically challenged youth and families, public performances and festivals, and ongoing training to promote cultural links and achieve excellence in mind, body and spirit. Funding provides youth and family scholarships and supports in-school programs and community performances and events in Afro-Brazilian capoeira, dance, music, arts and culture.
Help us bring excellent Afro-Brazilian arts programs to Tucson and Southern Arizona and make them accessible to all youth and families.
