Capoeira Dance Troop

Graceful moves which combines martial arts and dance in this elegant Brazilian dance form.



Rhythmic, spontaneous kicks are










choreographed with two dancers.


While one kicks up, the other tucks...



The martial arts part of it was secretly taught as a covert form of defense






















for the lowly people, who feared their repressive government.


Don't try this at home Mestro Amen tells us....


















Looks easy....doesn't it?

sure it does....
