Years ago I saw guys doing this on the crowded streets of midtown Manhattan during a Brazil Day festival - I seriously thought fights were breaking out...
The gymnastics in capoeira are called "flourishes" in English, but "floreios" in Brazil. They include things like head spins, hopping handstands, back handspring saltos, and cartwheels without any hands on the ground (or "au sem mao").
I love Capoeira and I am currently studying and practising this at home, but the problem is that there is not enough space to do all these awesome flips.
Who else is here because of Dustin Hoffman from "Meet the Fockers"? I know what some of you are thinking but it's not the weirdest place to get a glimpse of a Martial Art. Still though, when I heard that there was a thing such as "Dance Fighting", it was honestly the most beautiful thing I'd ever heard. Seriously, this puts the Art in its' designation as a MARTIAL Art. I hope to learn more of it someday. I notice it focuses a LOT on sweep and spin kicks. That's interesting
Most of the moves are trash compared to other fighting styles, I know this from experience because I use Muay Thai and never lost to a capoeira, but some of the moves are actually good
@@celenial6009 In Brazil they use capoeira as a form of leisure, not always as a fighting style or self-defense. Usually when capoeira is used for fights it is used together with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
@@celenial6009 Because it's not a super technical martial art. It establishes a lot of basics like how to kick with power and momentum. In a real fight it wouldn't be so flourish-y. The reason it's like this is because in the 16th century, slaves were trying to learn how to fight with it looking like they were practicing martial arts. There's a lot of history and culture behind the style and in the manner displayed in the video is more about the art
Capoeira originated within as a product of the Angolan tradition of "Engolo" but became applied as a method of survival that was known to slaves. It was a tool with which an escaped slave, completely unequipped, could survive in the hostile, unknown land and face the hunt of the capitães-do-mato, the armed and mounted colonial agents who were charged with finding and capturing escapees.
@@wolverineleo2140 We all already know that it was slaves of African descent in Brazil, In other words, they were already African descendants born in Brazil, capoeira originates in Brazil, with African influence, influence is not origin it's just a basis for something new to be created. who at that time were already of African descent, capoeira was invented in Brazil in the 16th century, a century after the arrival of Africans in Brazil in the 15th century, in this case it was already the a descendant of African peoples. In Brazil the descendants of African slaves were the ones who created the first capoeira, because in the 1930s the mestre bimba natural from the state of Bahia created a second capoeira, called regional capoeira with many differences and it was this version that spread throughout the world. world.
@@tiagoribeiro6759 Stop trying to make capoeira an invention of white people and other non-African/black people! The entire tradition and instrument is from AFRICA and the BLACK slaves who were stolen from AFRICA. The n'gola fighting they brought from AFRICA was forbidden by the white slaveowners. So the slaves began to disguise the fighting as a fighting dance with music. That is the BASIS/ORIGIN of what became the capoeira that we all know today. You will NEVER take away our African and Afro-Brazilian heritage!
When I played Tekken 3, back at 1999, one of the characters had this fighting style. His name was Eddy Gordo, and I thought the fighting moves were basically made up all those years ago until I found out that Eddy's fighting style is based on an actual fighting style.
It's professional wrestling! The dance is the wax on / wax off training that builds the muscle memory for maneuvers which could be used to great strength in battle when applied with pressure
In that folha seca, he does a sort of skewed angle like he would do that "parafuso" or screw jump, so I would call this a "folha seca parafuso". This capoeira move is definitely not for "iniciantes" (or "beginners'").
I’m using Gaelic Games 🇮🇪 as an example of the description I’m referring in asking about Capoeira. In Gaelic Football, it’s describe as having a ball resembling a volleyball 🏐 , the impact of rugby 🏉, the speed of badminton 🏸, scoring of basketball 🏀, and the suspense of soccer ⚽️. In Hurling, it’s described as combing the skills of lacrosse 🥍, baseball ⚾️, and hockey 🏒. What sports and recreation do you see in Capoeira?
In Capoeira there is the Irish dancing in Riverdance 💃 gymnastics 🤸♂️ Sean nos singers with Portuguese lyrics 🎤 Conor McGregor kicking and squealing 🦵 and crawling on the ground quickly like a wain 👶

It’s interesting when they say slaves invented it , misconception it was brought with them From Africa it’s an offshoot of an Angolan martial art called Engolo.
Call this question random if you must, but please don't let that distract you from the point. RUclips "Pokemon Stadium 2 RARE SHINY GRAVELER." Based on the way it flips in the video, do you guys think Graveler has potential in capoeira? The reason I'm asking is I'm making a video about why Graveler should be a Rock/FIGHTING type Pokemon.
I don’t think it’s really meant as a true fighting style, some of the movements and techniques could be helpful, but O doubt they’d be doing all the dancing and stuff if they were on a real fight. That being said, I still think Krav Maga would be better in a fight, although Capoeira is a really pretty thing.
We don't try to deal with anybody. We just have fun with capoeira that no other martial art offers. Capoeira is, by far, the most fun and exciting martial art! Everybody who has done capoeira and other martial arts will say the same thing.
Not true! It was ivented by African descendents in Brazil, the own name "capoeira" is a indigenous word that these African descendents learned with them.

Capoeira emerged in BRASIL as a form of resistance from slaves brought from Africa in colonial times. In addition to being used for physical defense, capoeira was a way to safeguard the identity of African slaves. Mainly because it was consolidated in Quilombo dos Palmares (Brazil)

@@samugamerbr2649 I knew all of that. I also knew that Capoeira comes from Africa. Specifically Angola. Ergo, it’s African, not Brazilian. When you type in on here “Angola Capoeira” you’ll see interviews of practitioners in Angola saying they’re the ones who made it.

Capoeira foi desenvolvida no Brasil. Você tá se referindo ao Engolo, no qual a capoeira foi baseada, mas a capoeira teve raízes tanto na cultura africana quanto na indígena (afinal, o nome "capoeira" é indígena)
@@martinmyggestik292 i've seen capoeira used in a fight. The kicks are powerful. I saw a dude get kicked square in the sternum. Ambulance showed up and took that guy to the hospital
It looks amazing martial art cuz of its fancy moves but almost emphasis is on kicking high that's why it cant be useful in real time. Imagine if your opponent successfully grabs your leg then he won't forget to drag you & you'll be totally *ucked!
It can be useful, and I invite you to look up proper capoeira championships and full contact competitions, to see what a proper, full power kick can do when the restriction of not giving your partner/opponent a concussion and broken teeth is taken away.

The hopping handstand in place is called "banana tree", or "bananeira".
This is a very beautiful form of martial arts
I love Capoeira and I am currently studying and practising this at home, but the problem is that there is not enough space to do all these awesome flips.
You don't need it. Sometimes it is good to have a small space to help with the refinement of moves and control.

And Christie Monteiro too
Your not wrong. It must have taken a genius to come up with Capoeira.
Awesome energy!
da como una alegría inmensa escucharlo
Eddy Gordo from Tekken also does Capoeira
So beautiful

Awesome moves doing a cart- wheel is a great move in Capoeira🙂
Aqui é capoeira! Aqui é o Brasil!🇧🇷✌️🌟😜
So this is what eddy does in Tekken 7 🤔
Doing it since Tekken 3.
Can be a nice dance but can be very deadly if you get it hit by the spinning kicks.
Beautiful.. From South Africa
Got here from Batuque.

Same for black people smh
Só digo uma coisa: "Djozé Couɹdeiɹou Caɹdouzou"
