Capoeira Angola is a folk game that emerged from Bahia, Brazil in the 1800s. Commonly known as a martial art, capoeira angola blends natural movement into takedowns and strikes with acrobatic flourishes. The game unfolds with live music and two players in the circle competing and collaborating to make something beautiful like a dance with deadly implications. Movement Fundamentals breaks down the essential movements of the game. The movements can be adapted for all bodies and limitations, but please take care that they can be challenging for those with cranky knees, backs, and wrists!
