Associação de Capoeira

Associação de Capoeira refers to organizations or groups that promote and practice capoeira, a unique Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics, and music. Originating from African slaves in Brazil, capoeira is characterized by fluid, rhythmic movements and is often performed in a circle called a "roda." Members of these associations typically engage in training, cultural education, and community events, fostering a sense of belonging and continuity in the capoeira tradition. The practice emphasizes not just physical skill but also respect, creativity, and cultural heritage.
