Os Malandros de Mestre Touro is based in San Diego, CA and was founded by Mestre Preto Velho as a means to empower his community through the art of Capoeira. More than just a means of self-defense, it is a method of cultural connection. Our group has been holding classes in the Dallas metroplex since 1997 and is open to everyone interested in growing in the art of Capoeira.
