Capoeira

MEET OUR COACH

Noko has been practicing Capoeira for over 20 years, being one of the first practitioners in Indonesia, promoting the sport all around Java.
In 2006 he moved to Bali and, together with Rod Penn (a.k.a. Medusa), founded the very first Capoeira school in Bali. One year later, they organized the first International Capoeira event on the island, bringing in many recognized Capoeira Masters from around the world.
Stints in Brazil led Noko to solidify his foundations and credibility, which he has illustrated in workshops and festivals around Asia. Together with his team at Capoeira Bali, he continues to promote the art of Capoeira in Bali.

CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

Capoeira is a manifestation of Afro-Brazilian culture that bears very peculiar features; it is a blend of fight, games and dance executed to the sound of musical instruments, claps, and chanting.
