Capoeira is a Brazilian martial art, combined with dance, music and singing. It is a type of self-defense and covered combat, which was developed in Brazil by African slaves whose ultimate goal was their liberation.

​

That is why it is also called the "dance of freedom". The game unfolds between two people (who take turns) in a "roda" circle, formed by the other Capoeira practitioners.

Attack and avoidance techniques (no physical contact, because hits are implied), kicks and stunts, always in the sound of Capoeira music, create a "dialogue" between the two players, sharpening the senses and harmoniously combining alertness, promptitude, and also ingenuity.
