What is Capoeira?

Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art combining movement, music, rhythm, acrobatics and strategy. Developed in Brazil by enslaved Africans and their descendants, Capoeira has deep cultural roots in Bahia and is now practised around the world.

At the heart of Capoeira is the roda, where capoeiristas interact through flowing movements, kicks, escapes, acrobatics and strategy while guided by traditional Capoeira music, singing and instruments such as the berimbau.
