  • Why Capoeira for Kids? Kids love to have fun. Capoeira is fun! Bantus Capoeira Malaysia currently has capoeira programs in Mont Kiara International School, Garden International School, Alice Smith Primary and International School of Kuala Lumpur with a total of approximately 100 students. Due to the overwhelming response to our school program, we are now introducing dedicated kids classes at the Academia Bantus.
  • How are Kids’ Classes Different From Adults’ Classes? The kids’ classes are catered especially to children where they will be able to learn the fundamental of movements, music and philosophies while playing specially designed capoeira games. “At this age, kids’ attention span is short. We need to think creatively to keep their interest and attention during classes. By injecting fun elements, it really helps them to keep them focused and keen on the game”, said Quek Wei Kin, Managing Director of BCM. He continued, “Children take to capoeira like ducks to water because capoeira requires creativity and spontaneity that is inherent in children.”
