Encouraging all kiddos to be active for life
because we believe that
active & healthy child equals happy family!
“I only have good words about the job you do with Capoeira. My daughter really liked the physical challenges, the flow of the classes and the homely environment. Capoeira is a good all-round discipline, it works lots of gymnastics movements, coordination not just the movements but also combined with the music. It is great fun and very impressive to watch.”

“Great opportunity to learn something new for my daughter, the drumming workshop was really engaging and fun. It’s good to spend more time on the school holidays on the workshops. We’re definitely coming back for the workshop if there’s anything planned in the further.”
– Dad of our 6 years old participant
“My son loves capoeira and its multicultural aspect. He is a very active child but the capoeira gives him a different layer of physical challenge and he gets home so happy, and energised but also calm at the same time. He especially enjoys the music part of capoeira, playing drums and singing is his favourite part of the class.”
– Mum of our 5 years old participant
“The kids really enjoyed it and one of my boys actually fell asleep at a reasonable time. He has suspected ADD and he’s normally takes 2-3hrs to fall asleep but was asleep by 8:30pm last night! They both really enjoyed it. We have done classes before but they’ve struggled with them and ended up not liking it. We tried dance, football etc. but this one was so unique blending movement and music together so the kids like it a lot.”
– Mum of our 7 years and 9 years old participants
Our Experience
After over 20 years of training and many years of teaching Capoeira & Djembe Drumming as freelancers, Kasia and Grześ decided to turn their business into a force for good and set up a social enterprise to provide lasting solutions to children inactivity by supporting and building healthy and active lives for children and their families.
We were working with communities first in Lodz, Poland, and now in the City of Edinburgh. Our main work is based in Fountainpark, Dalry and Gorgie where we lead regular after school classes, and South West of Edinburgh where we work with children and young people bringing physical activities in a very unique way to the communities.
Stay Active for Life!
