Pelo Sinal da Santa Cruz was founded in 2006 by Wilian da Silva Sampaio, better known as Mestre Xuxo. The philosophy of the school is to spread the art of Capoeira in its truest form, and keeping the art alive in every student. We believe that Capoeira is not simply a fight or a dance, but a way of life. Our teachers are dedicated to guide each and every student through this amazing world of Capoeira that is not limited to the movements, but also the fundamentals, history and musicality that makes the art whole.
