DO YOU PLAY CAPOEIRA?

Capoeira(CAPO-ERA) is a unique Brazilian sport that combines martial-arts, dance & acrobatics, with live music and Afro-Brazilian culture. Developed in the 1500s by African and Indigenous slaves in Brazil as a form of self defense, which they disguised as a dance as a way to hide their training of combat and self-defence from their oppressors, In Capoeira there are no winners or losers. Performed by two people, it is called a “Game” that is played, not fought, It is a dialogue between players – a conversation through movement to to the sounds of percussive Afro-Brazilian music. Combining cardiovascular and strength training, It burns fat and builds muscle, flexibility and endurance.

It improves balance, strength and coordination.
