Capoeira Classes
Capoeira incorporates several elements of the African culture: fighting, acrobatics and dance. Capoeira is recognized as martial art and disguised as a dance, but its principle lies in surprise and improvisation. The slaves from Africa brought the very first movements and created the capoeira in the rows of coffee, corn, the plantation fields – at the time it was a means of defense. The presentation includes a group of “jogadores” or players and the percussion instruments to set the pace and the berimbau – a one string instrument – that keeps the pace and sets the tone of the melody. The game is marked by fluid acrobatic feints, subterfuge and extensive use of leg movements, sweeps, kicks and head butts. Technique and strategy are the key elements of a good player.
