WHAT IS CAPOEIRA? PDF Print E-mail
Capoeira is a martial art created by African Slaves in Brazil as a means to protect themselves from their oppressors over 400 years ago. A dynamic physical art form with roots in the ceremonial dances of the Bantu and Native Indian people of  Brazil, it weaves together elements of music, vigorous body movement, acrobatics and self-defense. Capoeira creates a strong sense of community and develops self discipline and self confidence.
