Capoeira and Dance

Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that blends elements of dance, acrobatics, and music. Practiced in a circle called a "roda," it involves two participants engaging in a playful, dynamic exchange of movements, characterized by kicks, spins, and dodges. The art form emphasizes fluidity and rhythm, often accompanied by traditional instruments and songs. Dance, in a broader sense, is a form of expression through movement, often reflecting cultural, social, and artistic themes. It encompasses various styles and techniques, serving both as a performance art and a means of personal or communal expression.
