Capoeira is a unique Brazilian art form with African roots, combining movement, music and philosophy. The essence of capoeira is a graceful, flowing game played by two people inside a circle called roda. The circle's fifteen-foot circumference is formed by other participants who clap, sing and play instruments, while waiting their turn to play the game.

Mestre Acordeon


"Capoeira é uma forma artística única do Brasil com raízes africanas, que combina movimento, música e filosofia. A essência da capoeira é a harmoniosa fluidez do jogo realizado por duas pessoas dentro de um círculo chamado roda. A circunferência de uns cincos pés e formada pelos outros participantes que acompanham batendo palmas, cantando e tocando instrumentos, enquanto esperam por sua vez de participar no jogo."
