Roda de Capoeira

Roda de Capoeira is a dynamic, friendship-based circle where practitioners, known as capoeiristas, perform a blend of martial arts, dance, music, and acrobatics. Participants take turns entering the circle to engage in fluid, often improvisational movements that combine kicks, spins, and sweeps, all set to traditional music with instruments like the berimbau. Rooted in Brazilian culture, capoeira emphasizes agility, strategy, and rhythm while fostering community and cultural expression. The Roda serves as both a performance space and a ritual of connection, reflecting the art's historical resilience and its role as a form of resistance and social cohesion.
