Capoeira movements

Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art that blends dance, acrobatics, and music. Its movements are fluid and rhythmic, often involving kicks, spins, and evasive maneuvers. Key movements include the "ginga," a foundational swaying step that establishes flow; "meia-lua" (half-moon kick), a sweeping kick aimed at an opponent; and "au," a cartwheel-like motion for dodging attacks. Practitioners engage in a playful exchange known as "jogo," emphasizing agility, creativity, and strategy, all performed to live music, creating a vibrant cultural expression. Capoeira cultivates physical fitness, coordination, and a sense of community.
