This video illustrates how capoeira classes may be combined with experience and emotion based group counselling on successfully interacting in life - within
the realms of social work. It provides guidelines for those in charge of the classes. The methodology is meant to be used with a specific group of participants over a
number of capoeira and counselling classes ideally over a period of at least a few months, involving at least 10 classes organised at regular intervals.
Capoeira classes will help build confidence and self esteem of participants. The counselling methodology is designed to capitalise on learning points capoeira
classes provide concerning successfully interacting in life, i.e. to the advantage of individuals and their environments.
The capoeira instructor provides general guidelines to participants on how to interact in a positive way when practising and playing capoeira. Participants translate these guidelines into practical suggestions for positive behaviour which they wish to put into practice during the classes. The instructor continues to coach
participants on putting it into practice during the classes.

Volens is a Belgian NGO that in Zimbabwe helps build capacities of direct care providers through a network of local NGOs for dealing with the emotional and psychological needs of orphans and vulnerable children.
