About Capoeira:
Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that has been practiced since the 17th century, created by the African slaves who were brought to Brazil. Capoeira is very different from other martial arts in that it involves not only self-defense, but movement, music, dance and much more. To learn capoeira, one must not only learn the basic movements, but understand the roots of capoeira and its philosophy.
