Capoeira is a multilateral art form combining elements of martial arts, dance, acrobatics and music. Capoeira Mandinga Shanghai runs classes for kids aged 4 - 16 years, with students divided by age and ability. For the youngest group, the focus is on general movements and developing basic coordination. The older the children are, the more specific and refined their movements become. The leader of the center, Alex Maltsev, is a qualified teacher with over 13 years of experience in capoeira and over 10 years of teaching.
