ONDAS. A Community of Culture and Movement

"I really love that ONDAS has a book club (in person and on zoom) that I can participate in from anywhere. We read lots of books that touch on real social issues; feminism from the perspective of WOC, racism, and social justice. We read books by women of color and have thoughtful discussions. The ONDAS tagline is so accurate, "A Community of Movement and Culture" - movement can be related to the yoga, parkour or Capoeira classes, or also the movement of our thoughts and actions. Highly recommend if you are looking for an inclusive place where you and your children have room to grow."

"We've found an amazing community at ONDAS. The children's capoeira classes are the perfect blend of an encouraging environment and challenging activities--after a year of classes I've seen a huge growth in my child's confidence and strength. We've found that ONDAS is more than the classes, though--their events and community activities are fun, thought-provoking, and family friendly. I can't say enough good things about this space and community."

"The book club is a great opportunity to read and discuss books I wouldn’t otherwise read - but are so worth exploring. It’s a safe and respectful space. I come away from discussions with a better understanding of the books and so much appreciation for this community and all the perspectives shared. I’m looking forward to a new year of good reads"

"This is a wonderful community that offers something that can be hard to find in movement spaces: intentionality. The instructors have put so much work into their craft and done years of research. Students can expect to get a well-rounded understanding of what they're doing and why they're doing it, and receive excellent support to whatever level they want to go in their practice."

"This is a really excellent community and school that especially teaches Afro-Brazilian culture and capoeira, as well as other forms of dance and physical culture. Very welcoming to all ages and backgrounds."
