History

CapoeirArab was founded in 2007 by Tarek Alsaleh and started Capoeira classes in Damascus for Syrian youth.[3] The focus is to use capoeira as a tool to work with youth from strained communities, thereby giving them strength, skills, friendships, and finally educating them to become Capoeira teachers themselves. In 2009 CapoeirArab started a six-month project, in partnership with UNICEF[4] and Terre des Hommes[5] in Al Tanf refugee camp in Syria, playing and teaching capoeira with Palestinian camp residents. The project was a resounding success,[6][7] inspiring those behind CapoeirArab to establish a UK-registered International NGO called Bidna Capoeira.[8]

Mission

Bidna Capoeira's mission is to advance community development and social education, whilst at the same time enhancing physical and psychosocial well-being through the art of Capoeira. Currently, the NGO is conducting projects with refugees and communities worldwide, but focusing primarily on the Middle East.[9]
