What is Capoeira?

Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that combines music, dance, acrobatics, and self-defense. A manifestation of the African diaspora, capoeira is an art form of liberation and an expression of Afro-Brazilian culture. A tool for personal development, a means for community, capoeira is for anyone and everyone.
