I’d like to fit some exercise into my life

I’d really like to try capoeira - has anyone any experience of it? I’ve so far found three groups within the area, though unfortunately non under 10 miles distance, which might pretty much rule it out. I’ve got Leeds Capoeira who practise on a Weds evening; Group Senzala, Thurs, and Capoeira Yorkshire who actually have weekend classes. Having said that, the way that my weekends are stacking up at the moment (these birthdays are getting out of hand!) middle of the week might work better (if I think I can stay awake that long anyway :( ).

Appreciate comments and advice!

ETA, ooh, have found one in Hudds!

    they’ve mentioned it on Green House by the Sea, you could try dropping them a comment to ask?

    I’ve never even heard of it - how out of date am I?

    Go with Senzala, they are a respected group within the uk. if you can make it to Sheffield we have Cordao de Ouro who run a class on Monday, Tuesdays and Thursdays. I think their website is cdonotts.co.uk

    Oo you’ll love it!!

    Our kids did it for several years but eventually lost interest. This was because the lovely teacher left. The group they went to is http://www.capoeirabrighton.org.uk/

    Good luck! Balance and stamina seemed to be needed in far greater quantity than I have.
