Capoeria is more of a way of life than an exercise class for the students in Cais da Bahia in Framingham.
The class is steeped in Brazilian culture and each session leaves its students exhausted after an hour of kicking, jumping and flipping through the air.
Some of the class' most dedicated students have been studying for more than a decade, and come to the studio more than 5 times per week.
