Founder of Axé Oakland.
Chipa Leads & Directs ALL capoeira classes at Axé.
“I have been a student of capoeira for 29 years and have been teaching for 20 years. I love sharing my knowledge of my culture and history through capoeira to children and adults.
I provide an exciting and high-energy class that facilitates improvement in coordination, endurance, memory, balance, music, language, core strength, and flexibility. I specialize in youth and adult classes starting at age 3. Capoeira is a fun and unique way to explore your body’s abilities.”
