Capoeira

Pedro speaks: Capoeira( /kapuˈeiɾɐ/) originated in Brazil, where it was started by the African slaves. They used it for entertainment, and also to fight against their white masters. It is a kind of martial art which is also like a dance. You need to be very fit and strong and you should have good control of your body. You often have to use your hands to balance. Everyone sits around in a circle, singing and playing music, and two people fight in the centre. To fight the other person you kick with your feet, but nowadays, there is no contact. As soon as you see the other person’s hand or foot coming towards you, you have to move away quickly. You must be careful the other person kicks you. If the other person kicks you, then you lose.

Afterwards, you can relax and talk about the fight. And we often spend evening together, listening to music. I have been doing Capoeira for three years. I have improved a lot since I started, and now I wear a green belt. In the future, I would like to become a trainer and teach other people about this beautiful sport.

For your information. Capoeira nowadays is not only a martial art, but an active exporter of Brazilian culture all over the world. In the 1970s (nineteen seventies), capoeira masters began to emigrate and teach it in other countries. Present in many countries on every continent, every year capoeira attracts thousands of foreign students and tourists to Brazil. Capoeira presentations, normally theatrical, acrobatic and with little martiality, are common sights around the world. ( Around the World)
