Martial Arts
Experience that translates into results
With a career that began in boxing, coached by his own father, and continued with achievements in judo, Capoeira experiences at the Military Police Academy, and intense training with black belts in Karate, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, and, more recently, Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), the instructor brings a unique background. He not only masters the techniques—he’s experienced real-life combat situations and knows what works in practice.
For all ages and goals
Classes are designed for all levels and ages—from 9 to 65. Whether you’re a beginner or already experienced, here you’ll find a welcoming, challenging, and motivating environment.

Testimonial
Student Reviews
My experience with Wallace Ferreira with self-defense and agility training based in Capoeira was very positive. He worked with my children and me developing a foundation of defensive moves for self-protection. This included agility training with tumbling and controlled falls. I found Wallace to be very knowledgeable demonstrating moves that were easy to understand. The total experience gave me and my children greater physical confidence to handle ourselves.
I recommend Wallace without reservation

In time you will reach your goal. Competition, self-defense or training for exercise.. you will become a natural in your desired technique.
I would recommend Wallace for Knowledgeable, Professional and Experienced Training.

It has been a number of years since I’ve trained with Wallace, but here’s what I would say about my experience training with him:
I felt very safe training with Wallace and I feel like I learned usable self-defense tactics that were based in real time, street based, effective, powerful and useful tactics.
I valued the mixed martial arts aspect of his training, one on one real time training, and hands on tactics which I feel like is very valuable if you’re ever in a situation that you need to use it.
Wallace accommodated for my current fitness level and encouraged me to become stronger through training.
I would highly recommend training with Wallace, and enjoyed working with him.
