Capoeira
Capoeira is a martial art developed by African slaves in Brazil during the 16th century. In Capoeira, two capoeiristas partake in a game of body-dialogue, exchanging movements of attack and defence in ritualised combat to the rhythm of the berimbau. Capoeira is a very fluid and dynamic art, combining elements of self-defence and acrobatics.
