The beauty of capoeira isn't just in the music, but also how both the capoeiristas and the music respond to eachother. The bodies of the capoeiristas seem to move in such a way that their moves have the same flow as the music. As the tension in the fight heightens the band plays harder and faster in response. It is truly the most elegant fighting style ever to exist and also one of the most unique. In short the beauty and uniqueness in this fighting style is the way it blends fighting and dance.
Hooray for Regional Capoeira! Hello from Rabo de Arraia group. The song is Paranaue from Only The Strong movie. Just to add, the main in capoeira is not to be stronger or faster or more clever. The main part is to be happy and to share happiness with your opponent.
It's called "Paranaue", and was featured in the movie Only the Strong, starring Mark Dacascos. Only the Strong was the first time most Americans had heard of Capoeira (it certainly was for me), so you'll actually see a lot of UA-cam videos featuring the song.
eu pratico jiu-jitsu, mas sem duvida que capoeira é a arte marcial mais linda de se ver... mais bonita até que o kung fu... quando tiver oportunidade irei praticar capoeira tbm!
muito massa! I love this! for those guys who think this is a fight, u're wrong. It works kick, punches and this kind of stuff, but it is a dance. That's why some of you think this is similar to hip hop dance.People tell stories that Capoeira influenced on break dance, but I don't have a sure about this. Search if you want. I'm from Brazil.
capoeira is a form of fighting invented by the salves who were not allowed to practice martial arts, so they just said it's their way of dancing. It is not as efficient in a fight as modernd MA like boxing, K-1, Muay Thai, but it's very spectacular and esthetic. I love watching Capoeira shows :)
I just can't stop watchinggg this absolutelly the bestt I've seen out of all the capoeira videosss. You guys are extremelyy good and I hope u come to london to give out seminarssss.. Great worrkkk
This is really cool. I cant wait until I start taking Lessons... But this seems more like a cross between Gymnastics, Dance, Martial Arts and Acrobatics... They may not be actually making contact, but I bet if one of those flips made contact to your head it would hurt pretty bad!
Break dancing is the more modern version of this dance wise, there are a few yoga, gymnastic, and Brazilian jiu jitsu moves in there also. The best way to start off is learning the ginga.
I study Martial Arts (Not physically I mean the books) Capoeira is absolute perfection in evading and great to confuse your foe but as for physical contact and defense its not so good, Once you get hit your pretty much out cuz you need to be firm to take a blow and moving around can make you loose that thought, as for attacking it has its 50/50 chance to be effective.
I totally agree with the people who know what capoeira is actually about. This is a demonstration only, not an actual fight. If you want to see capoeira in action, check out the movie Hero, where the main character, a mui thai fighter, goes against a capoeira fighter. GREAT fight there.
Cette vidéo remonte a plus de 10 ans mais reste toujours aussi fun à regarder, les jeux de capoeira sont fluides et les acrobaties très stylées. la musique est un peu bof par dessus mais la vidéo vaut vraiment le coup surtout si on aime les mouvements raffinés de capoeira. jogaki capoeira paris
Yeah - when it was made it was sort of meant to look like a dance because from my understanding practicing fighting was banned, so they made this fighting style that would trick the people who banned practicing fighting. Really cool style though.
@killswitchbmx ... keep it up, it's a beautiful, graceful form of martial art. To me, Capoeira is as precious and valuable as any other official martial arts. I'm so happy that it's expending. In Portugal theres a lot of schools. Actually, everywhere where there is a Brazillian community usually there is a Capoeira school. You guys are good w/ that stuff... there's Jiu Jitsu as well...very cool!!!
Alright I just wanted to clarify is all. No beef. My two teachers conflict on this also one say dance one say martial art. But my mestre who teach grapples, submissions and pressure points say martial art so I go with that. If you are interested in it, I think it's pretty awesome to get into. Not all groups are great I'm sure but the community in all usually are pretty friendly and diverse in so many ways. I train ASCAB under Mestre Doutor. My experience in capoeira have been awesome so far.
when i saw this in highschool i thought it was so bad ass but i never thought i could do it, and now its my sophomore year in college and i started class's last thursday and im having a blast :D
It can be used as fighting, dance, or acrobatically. When African, and Brazilian peoples weren't allowed to learn fighting techniques they invented this type of style to disguise what they were actually learning.
All I know is that if someone is physically capable of doing this, I would not want to get on their bad side. The sheer muscle and agility it'd take to be good at capoeira would make anyone a beast.
nossa eu gostei e tanbem eu faso capoera esso é uma coisa muito emportante para mim mais o meu primo nossa ele é de mais numca pensei que o valdene era assim tao craqui nesto uiui deposs quero ir com vc para quem é mais melhor nesto ta bom
Look even better than taekwondo. Capoeira is good in fighting, can give very surprising attack to opponent. I would like to learn this art for keeping fit have fun and satisfied, if to defense myself i'll buy a taser.
Soo... since when have these moves been used? Does anyone know about the historic connection (or non-connection, although I find that hard to imagine) between Breaking and Capoeira?
True, but we are not living in the past. We are living in the NOW. And almost all,, or most of us use Martial Arts in a peaceful way. Because anyone who truly knows and understands a martial art, doesn't EVER have to, or need to use it in real life. And that's a great thing about the martial arts. :) Our oppressors just know that we are not someone to mess with. We have confidence, power, calmness, disappline, inner strength and hopefully a good peaceful soul that shines from us. Peace. :)
Please don't misinform people if you don't know ...Capoeira is a form of self defence dating hundreds of years The music is Afro-Brazilian Music mixed with Samba formed by the same people that perform capoeira however not everyone sings or plays a instrument
look up "capoeira fight science" then talk. ive trained with people in capoeira. when they really have some mastery in their art, they KILLED me. trust me. the interesting thing about capoeira is its stealth. There's so much circular movement and body control, its difficult to predict their moves.
What about Tai Chi. That is a form of martial art, but there's no touching. :) Martial Arts doesn't have to be contact or violent at all. It's a mental, physical and spiritual exercise that anyone can and should be able to do, for all 3 of those reasons. It's a beautiful dance. And yes it's also for self defence and other things that people do martial arts for. :) Peace.
for everyone who wants the name of the song its the theme song of the movie "Only the strong" from marc dacascos btw i was on this festival ,getting my red/blue cord too bad i fucked up my back a year later or else i was still doing capoeira:(
they can flip around like that for minutes straight and not show any sign of fatigue, dizziness, or lack of awareness of the fight, which of course takes all concentration.. that is the mark of someone who has truly mastered what they do..
e um videosao! os caras fragam msm se eu tivesse equilibrio, ate faria, mas eu n tenho, entao fasso Taekwondo.. e nao acho nenhuma arte marcial melhor q outra, so sao diferentes parabens caras!! -if i have more talent, i should make it, but i don't have, just, i make taekwondo. i think that don't have any better marcial art, they are only different.. capoeira is unique and beautiful (2) thats a great video VIVA o BRASIL!!!!!
With all things, it takes lots of practice. This has a lot to do with upper body strength and control of that. It can be very precise and effective with the right amount of control. There is a lot of kinetic energy that's built up when they do the ginga, plus it's harder to strike against someone that's constantly moving.
I remember when I first heard this song when I was like 13 and I thought it said banana way
CAPOEIRA BRASIL! AXÉ é o que deseja o GRUPO CAPOEIRA BRASIL NATAL-RN!
Ahhhhhh essa nossa arte... é tudo de bom a capoeira... AMOOOOOR é MEEEU AMOOOR... AMOOOR......
AXÉ A TODOS CAPOERISTAS !!!
esse é o melhor video de capoeira q eu ja vi...........e não me canso de ver nuncaa
muito bom esse grupo,ja fiz capoeira a uns 12 anos atraz,mas não era tão bom assim como esses caras,gostei muito do video
a capoeira é uma arte unica. O Brasil deve dar mais valor a ela.
The beauty of capoeira isn't just in the music, but also how both the capoeiristas and the music respond to eachother.

Capoeira is a great martial art and very entertaining at the same time. These guys are incredibly strong and agile.

es una arte y un estilo de vida con mucho orgullo capoeira.....
In the hands of a well trained capoeira expert, it can be very effective. Not to mention looks cool as a bonus
Great video, I LOVE CAPOEIRA!!!
é incrivel a tecnica dos capoeiristas, eles escondem golpes letais disfarçado de dança, muito bom ^^
loko o videos parabéns
This art needs to be taught in more places around the world
I watched this live for the first time today. Most incredible sport i've ever seen. Beats football and baseball by a mile.
Eu sou praticante de jiu jitsu a 11 anos. Mas eu sempre quis aprender a arte da capoeira! jogar capoeira não basta, tem que amar a capoeira!
That was amazing, I'm learning Capoeira myself, but I'm nothing like these guys. I just started learning a few days ago. lol.
Show de Bola
perfeito os caras jogam muito bem
CAPOEIRA FOR LIFE OW YEAHHH!!! I DO THE SPORT TO NOW IM TRYING TO BE THAT GOOD AS YOU GUYS!
This is a little better than most of the capoiera videos that I have seen.
Break dancing is the more modern version of this dance wise, there are a few yoga, gymnastic, and Brazilian jiu jitsu moves in there also. The best way to start off is learning the ginga.

This has the be the happiest and most upbeat martial art. :]
I don't think I could do it without the music though lol
I take capoeria for prof. Fabiano Lucas. he a great teacher, i loveeee capoeria !!!
Actualy there is capoeira as a fight...the dance is a tradition and it trains your balance, speed and coordination...
This is the craziest, more amazing thing I've ever seen! :D
that is spomre of the best capoeira I've ever seen! very impressive, I just wish I could do it!
bacana irmão , like certo .
3 days of straight capoeira... exhausting... I don't even want to see another capoeira fight... why am I here? beats me...
Cette vidéo remonte a plus de 10 ans mais reste toujours aussi fun à regarder, les jeux de capoeira sont fluides et les acrobaties très stylées.
la musique est un peu bof par dessus mais la vidéo vaut vraiment le coup surtout si on aime les mouvements raffinés de capoeira.

Capoiera is the COOLEST martial arts ever! even more cooler than kung fu!
This might not be the most practical martial art but damn, it certainly is the coolest one.
I really like this martial art since it looks just as fun as it should be serious :D
Capoeira is really cool!
I think it's full of exciting when someone this dance-fight learned
Tambem quero fazer capoeira!!!
Capoera is cool and the music is cool too >
Yeah - when it was made it was sort of meant to look like a dance because from my understanding practicing fighting was banned, so they made this fighting style that would trick the people who banned practicing fighting. Really cool style though.
my fav martial art cant wait to learn this, its a shame movies misportray this style
Isto é Capoeira de Verade - SALVADOR / BA - BRAZIL

I love the capoeira cart wheels :)
I don't care whether this is real fighting or not, these guys are clearly awesome physical specimens and I wouldn't wanna go up against them.
I still find it incredible to think that Capoeira is a actual martial art, but now I want to learn it
simplismente a luta mais linda do mundo !
I really want to do this stuff. It looks so fun and challenging. Would it be a problem starting, being that I'm 18?
yea I loved that movie and that song to, it was called "Only the Strong with Mark Dacascos!!!!
when i saw this in highschool i thought it was so bad ass but i never thought i could do it, and now its my sophomore year in college and i started class's last thursday and im having a blast :D

Eu sempre quis dançar capoeira
every single month I like to watch this video for once at least :D hope 1 day I'll be there
capoeira e o melhor sporto do mundo
All I know is that if someone is physically capable of doing this, I would not want to get on their bad side. The sheer muscle and agility it'd take to be good at capoeira would make anyone a beast.
Are there any more videos of the tall guy? His moves are sick!
wow i love it!!!
and this song!! whats the name of it? I LOVE IT!!! ^^
@grobmiller Awesome! Do you focus on regional or angola?

Saw this when i was in brazil on the beach. It's cool :D
perfeito tenho 30 anos sou ex capoeirista , parei por causa do joelho , chorei com o video , saudade boa :(
when you get that good your energy level is high

anyone know what album this song is from? i love the instrumentals in it
Fighting and dancing this sport is awesome!
This is breath taking but also breath giving.
Please don't misinform people if you don't know ...Capoeira is a form of self defence dating hundreds of years
The music is Afro-Brazilian Music mixed with Samba formed by the same people that perform capoeira however not everyone sings or plays a instrument
@TheOrpheus22 is it tough to learn? I want to start next year with it, I did karate and muay thai before.
look up "capoeira fight science"
then talk.
ive trained with people in capoeira.
when they really have some mastery in their art, they KILLED me.
trust me. the interesting thing about capoeira is its stealth. There's so much circular movement and body control, its difficult to predict their moves.
The strength, skill and fitness level it must take to do that... I'm in awe.
Where do I sign up haha?
What about Tai Chi. That is a form of martial art, but there's no touching. :)
