Capoeira!
Brazilian Style Fighting (DVD)
Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art created in the 1500's by
African slaves. The slaves were not allowed to practice any fighting techniques
that they had learned in Africa. To overcome this restriction, the slaves
practiced the fighting moves and techniques disguising them as dances. The
techniques presented here are very unique and deceptive. Developed by the
leaders of the New York Branch, the moves bring together their comprehensive
knowledge of traditional Capoeira techniques and other martial arts. The New
York City Branch incorporates boxing, the African martial art of Batuque and
Brazilian jiu jitsu in its Capoeira. This video features beginning movements and
many advanced moves including techniques and fighting applications.
