Capoeira is a martial art disguised as a dance developed in Brazil during the 16th century that combines acrobatics, rhythm, music, and self-defense techniques.
It is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that includes powerful kicks and hand strikes, agile evasive maneuvers, coordinated attacks, and defensive strategies in a fluid, graceful, and often improvised way. The music and movement of the game creates a type of physical dialogue between the players.
Capoeira is a martial art that combines elements of folk dance, acrobatics and music. The art originated in Brazil in the 16th century as a way for slaves and subsequent freedmen to disguise their self-defense training as a dance. Performing circular movements, often combined with beautiful music, capoeira has become a symbolic expression of freedom. The main objectives of capoeira are to build physical strength, improve coordination and reflexes, and to increase self-confidence.
Capoeira practitioners are also taught to remain aware of their opponents in order to predict their actions and respond accordingly. The game is usually accompanied by a roda, a circle of people singing and playing instrumental music, as well as by calls from two participants and improvisation from the others.
