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.

The music Music is not incidental to the practice of capoeira; in fact, it is one of its most important elements. At the head of the roda is an orchestra consisting of several instruments that set the tempo and the style of game that is to be played. The orchestra is completed by a chorus, the ring of voices echoing from the roda in a call and response style song lead by one of the Capoeiristas.
