The Association of Capoeira Argola de Ouro Singapore is the first official capoeira school in Singapore. Through the efforts of the Association, Capoeira is fast becoming a recognized and respected martial art and art form.

Since 2004, we have held annual International Capoeira Festivals through which local students and capoeiristas from abroad have a chance to exchange the culture and understanding of capoeira. The Association’s work has been recognized by the Singapore Sports Council in their Sports Education Programme, the National Arts Council’s Art Education Programme and the People’s Association through the capoeira lessons in the local community centre for members of the public. The Association of Capoeira Argola De Ouro (Singapore) currently conducts classes at the Substation at Armenian Street, the National University of Singapore and Nanyang Technological University.

The Association also organizes Capoeira demonstrations at Primary and Secondary schools and is recognised by the Ministry of Education (MOE).
