The Common Press is excited to host Queer Capoeira on 29th September from 6:30 pm - 9 pm for beginners or experienced capoeiristas. It's a great opportunity to learn, practice and socialise with other queers who love Capoeira. The evening will be led by Z B Hunter (Wakanda).

Renowned for its acrobatic and intricate maneuvers, capoeira often involves hands on the ground and inverted kicks, showcasing its dynamic and fluid nature. This martial art has been a part of Afro-Brazilian culture for centuries, embodying a rich history and tradition that continues to thrive today.

Doors open from 6:30pm. Session from 7pm - 9pm *(Downstairs).
