Capoeira, midad baile, mitad arte marcial.
La filosofía juega un papel importante en Capoeira y los mejores profesores se esfuerzan por inculcar Respeito (Respeto), Responsabilidade (Responsibilidad), Segurança (Seguridad), Malicia (Inteligencia/malicia), y Liberdade (Libertad).
La Academia Fonte Nova del barrio de la cuidad das dunas, imparte clasas gratuitas a los jovenes. El maestro Lula enseña junto con los movimentos corporales, buenas costumbres para cuidar el alma. Este reportaje ha sido realizado en el mes de Marzo de 2008 en Natal, cuidad en el norte de Brasil.Desde siempre, la capoeira se practica en rodas, que son por así decirlo «luchas amistosas sin contacto», aunque no siempre ha de ser así. Los practicantes forman un círculo cerrado formado por luchadores y músicos, que llevan el ritmo e intensidad del «juego» (jogo). En el interior del círculo pueden haber hasta 3 luchadores en un momento determinado: dos capoeiristas jugando y otro en espera de sustituir a uno de estos dos anteriores. Durante la roda, los capoeiristas que observan el juego se limitan a cantar y tocar las palmas para dar mayor energía a la misma.
En una ocasión he visto un espectaculo de capoeira y fue algo impresionante.

Rob#1March 7, 2012Another beautiful post, as usual. After your aprenmatt hunting incident, I was also a little concerned that you didn’t post last night. I kept thinking that some creepy guy has you locked in a box somewhere. Even if you were, I figured you’d still find a way to blog from the box. You would write eloquently about how small the box is, and how it kinda smells like the trees after it rains. Then you would wax poetically about life and how, even locked in a box in some creepy guy’s aprenmatt, you were still looking for the silver lining (of life, not the box).You would ration that, even though you were in a box, at least you found a new place to live. And since you were being held againt your will, the rent is going to be a steal. Sure, you’re going to have to do some really creepy stuff. But it’s New York, and you’re used to that. And yeah, he’ll probably make you dress up like one of the Spice Girls and sing If you wanna be my lover , but at least you get to sing. The box isn’t so bad really after all. Thankfully, you’re alive and well and not in a box. I presume, anyway. Going on a Lion Hunt brought back memories of a christian school I used to go to. I haven’t heard that song since the 3rd grade. Weird.
That’s really shrewd! Good to see the logic set out so well.
