The Capoeira Experience at Chattanooga’s Renaissance Park

From “The Capoeira Experience” banner.
Art To Empower / River City Company

If you visit Renaissance Park in downtown Chattanooga this weekend, you’ll see on display an Afro-Brazilian martial art that combines dance, acrobatics and music.

On Saturday, Art to Empower presents "The Capoeira Experience - Rhythm in the Park," from 4 PM to 8 PM.

I spoke with Monica Ellison and her husband, Aaron - “Coach Cherokee” - Ellison.
