CONTRA MESTRA LEIKA
Leika’s journey with Capoeira started in 1999 when she was first introduced to the movements, music, and history of this powerful art. She began training in 2002 with Mestre Jurandir and later with Mestre Silvinho when he moved to Seattle in 2004. She graduated as Contra Mestra at the International Capoeira Angola Foundation conference in Belo Horizonte in July 2025. She is humbled to be a guardian of this ancestral tradition. She honors the African roots of Capoeira and works to elevate Capoeira as a transformational tool for social justice and self-awareness.
