    Cool. I play capoeira, and what you've just said applies in the roda (that's the name of a match) too.

    I find that it's a case of programming your body by training so hard that you can react with minimal effort when you are actually in combat. so you do all your thinking before the game.

    I see a capoeira game as a conversation too, and as you say moving your partners' mind, as well as allowing yourself to be moved.

    My teacher says "If you play capoeira, you will fall. If you don't want to fall, don't play capoeira." This is true of life too I think!
