Capoeira for Sec 1F PE

As part of our partnership with Argola de Our, the first Brazilian Capoeira school in Singapore, VS was able to incorporate capoeira into our PE lessons for 6 sessions to provide our boys with some exposure to a new culture that fused dance, martial arts and song all together.

Here, we see the boys putting what they've learnt into the roda- the game:


Here we see U-wen and Sherman battling it out in the Roda.


As the sessions progress, the boys are able to string together more complex moves:


Although, the boys only had a few sessions and could only accomplish some of the more basic moves but they learnt to take on different roles and utilise whole body movements to gain agility and co-ordination.

I'm sure this new found agility helped during our last PE lesson when the boys went back to soccer!
