Capuera Angola

Capoeira Angola is a traditional Brazilian martial art that combines elements of dance, acrobatics, music, and spiritual expression. Originating from African communities in Brazil, it is characterized by its fluid movements and low stances, often performed in a circle called a "roda." Practitioners engage in a playful exchange of moves, showcasing skill and creativity while respecting their partner. Music and rhythm are vital, as songs and instruments set the tempo and atmosphere. Unlike the more modern Capoeira Regional, Angola emphasizes tradition, history, and cultural identity, making it a rich and meaningful practice beyond physical combat.
