Roda de Capoeira Angola mit Frauen*

– Associação de Capoeira Angola Dobrada Frankfurt e.V.

Capoeira refers to an Afro-Brazilian martial art that combines body control, dance and play with rhythm, music and song. It is a kind of dialogue between the two players, not with words, but with movements of attack, defense and deception. Slaves in Brazil developed this unique fighting technique, a defense against their oppressors disguised in dance. The rhythm and speed of the game are determined in the roda de capoeira by the batteria: consisting of three berimbaus, atabaque (standing drum), pandeiro (tambourine), recoreco (ratchet) and agogô (double metal bell). In Capoeira Angola, movement is slow and fluid, training mental and physical discipline, respect for others, and the art of fighting with a smile.
