WHAT IS CAPOEIRA?
Capoeira is a unique sport that blends attack and defense with flowing, dance-like movements, acrobatics, music, instruments and songs. It is known by quick and complex moves, using mainly power, speed, and leverage for leg sweeps. The fusion of these elements builds flexibility, agility, strength, balance and coordination in addition to self-confidence.
Capoeira is not only a sport but a dynamic, ritualistic and cultural form of self-expression which connects participants to Brazil's rich cultural history.
