Check this out! In honor of Hispanic and Latino Heritage Month, we're highlighting Leigh Robertson's "Intro to Capoeira", a martial art with a powerful history.

Developed in Brazil by enslaved Africans, Capoeira was disguised as a dance and used as a means to resist oppression. The program teaches students this incredible art form, promoting an active, healthy lifestyle while fostering balance, coordination, self-expression, and respect.
