Learning Capoeira in the Heart of Brazil | Ep.9 | Month In The Making

We are in Brazil 🇧🇷! We are learning Capoeira 🥋! We are continuing the Month in the Making journey 🌎! Month in the Making has landed in Brazil champions!! My mission to learn 12 unique skillsets in 12 months in 12 countries has brought me to Brazil to master the Martial Art of Capoeira. It's going to be a month full of kicks and flips but as you'll see I have to get my handstand and cartwheels down first.
Ever since I watched the movie "Only the Strong" I have been hooked on the idea of learning Capoeira. I finally witnessed Capoeira first hand during my Semester at Sea voyage and knew it was for me. Now I am in the heart of Brazil 🇧🇷 on the beautiful island of Ilhabela 🏝 with the mission to master this beautiful martial art with the help of Mestre Nene!
I am immersing myself in the culture of Capoeira as a student of Mestre Nene. This crazy master lives, breaths, and eats Capoeira. Mestre Nene insists that Capoeira is not just rhythmic movements, but a lifestyle. After a week full of Capoeira I can tell there is more than music and movement but can't yet explain what it is. You'll have to watch and discover for yourself!!

I love Capoeira. I do it everyday and I'm 81 years old.

I love the video brother! You had a real good time 😁 I’m planning on going too this February! I have a RUclips channel on a separate account where I also share sports!
May I ask if you have any relevant information before going ? 😊

Pretty much every muscle and bone ached in my body during my first month of learning capoeira. Including having a dead shoulder for a week and a half. I told myself I would not give up even though I am at middle age. I'm still sore a lot, but after 3 months, the major pains are over.

Parabéns Menino da Ilha! Pura Vida!!!
