While you're in the region
Is this a good one?
- Against others of its kind
- At $144 a day this sits right at the $140 median for traditional & survival. It is cheaper than 4 of the 10 traditional & survival options mapped here.
- Other things to learn in Brazil
- 2 other options in Brazil, starting with capoeira in Salvador from $700.
- When to go
- Workable across 6 months of the year — Jun-Nov. Outside that the season is against you, not the school.
- How long it really takes
- Most people give it 8 days, but the honest range is 3 to 21. That spread is wide because how far you take it is up to you.
