Professor Soquete is a fantastic Capoeira and martial arts teacher and practitioner. He has a real passion for teaching and takes a cerebral approach to instruction, dedicating much of his time to researching the latest theories of learning and methods to peak performance. His classes are well structured and fun, striking a balance between enjoyment and hard work towards technical mastery.
Kadara Capoeira Toronto is the place to train if you want to learn Capoeira and enjoy the journey. Great teacher; great students; great atmosphere; great Capoeira.

I went here for the summer, everyone is very welcoming. The instructor is extremely knowledgeable and is accommadating to various skill levels. The class sizes are small which is good because there is more one on one time if needed. The schedule is great for kids and adults. A great place for anyone looking into Capoeira

We are so lucky to have found this Capoeira location. Soquete is an absolutely amazing instructor. He has so much patience for his students whether beginner or advanced. He genuinely cares for the students and provides such positive encouragement which allows people to flourish. Our son started only 3 months ago and has improved dramatically in-terms of his skill set of capoeira but more so life skill sets. He has great self confidence and has developed, persistence, accepts challenges with a can-do attitude. These life skills will help him throughout his life. I would encourage anyone to come to one of his classes as he is probably the best instructor in Toronto.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Soquete for quite a few years now. His knowledge of Martial Arts extends far beyond Capoeira. His overall knowledge and passion for teaching is an admirable quality that is just one of the many infectious qualities he possesses. If you’re thinking of trying Capoeira, I would suggest visiting Kadara Capoeira Canada in Scarborough.

Kadara Capoeira is an amazingly unique and inclusive community experience. Professor Soquete is a gifted teacher who truly believes in his students and consistently strives to bring out the best in each and every one. Truly a Scarborough gem!

I am very happy of having discovered this capoeira school and met the instructor and his students. The teaching is awesome and there is always a great positive atmosphere. You always leave class with a smile. I recommend for adults and children wanting to learn the art of Capoeira or seeking a new fitness challenge. At Kadara Capoeira, not only you get better as a martial artist and capoeira practicer, but you also become part of the family, and this is awesome.

Amazing professor. Very patient and kind with the kids and teaches more than the art of capoeira. You can genuinely feel how proud he is of the kids. Great environment

Great start and welcoming experience for those who are new and want to learn. Challenging practice exercises for those more advanced. Amazing workout! An opportunity to try something new, learn about a new culture, get in great shape and really get a mind-body connection going. Professor Soquete is very passionate about teaching and has been doing so for many years and it shows! Positive environment and at the end of class you can join the roda and put what you’ve learned into practice.

Absolutely amazing instructor and fellow learners/parents 🙂 Great environment, friendly and non-judgemental atmosphere. Both of my boys are enrolled 2x/wk, each. They are now counting and singing songs in Portuguese at home!! This class is the real deal, and gives your child the complete experience of Brazilian culture, song, dance, and martial arts. 110% happy with their services. Most reasonable extracurricular activity out there right now! You will be blown away with their monthly rates and sibling discounts – and there are drop-in options, as well. Our children never let us live it down if we miss a class lol I wish we started this a long time ago. You will not be disappointed. It’s one of those things you just have to check out to know!

I was looking for some sort of gym or martial art school seeing I was completely out of shape and I came across Kadara Capoeira. It is everything I am interested in (martial arts, acrobatics, music, dance, and culture). And based on the reviews I had to try this school out. Day 1 was challenging (for me) but then I knew it was the place/space I needed. I’m five months in, my hubby has even joined me (he had noticed I reached my initial goal). And he loves this school, too. I have a lot more to learn and I’m excited about it. Professor Soquete with all his experience, dedication, and knowledge makes my hubby and I both proud to be his students.
