Capoeira Angola at The University of Texas at Austin
The Capoeira Angola Student group was originally founded in 1998 to further the study of Capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian dance/martial art, by sponsoring on-going classes and hosting workshops with visiting mestres.
Come play capoeira
No experience necessary, all are welcome! And we mean that! You do not need to be a current student to attend our classes. Faculty and Staff of UT are welcome. So are all members of the community and visiting capoeiristas.

We use dues to pay for basic operational expenses and to host workshops with visiting teachers.
