As the resident QBN capoeira head - thanks for spreading this crap. *sigh*
That shit is from a movie. It's fake. I publish an independent magazine for capoeira and my stupid email box has been filled with shit about this stupid video for the last two weeks. I can't even escape it here....*sigh*

people used to do it during lunch time when I was in college. its pretty fun to watch.
I laughed at the video though. Reminded me of Raiders of the Lost Ark when Indy shoots the dude with the sabre.

do you know the history of capoeira?
- TheBlueOne0
I always thought this vid was a cool bit of production:
- Gilt0010
I think it goes more like this...
- 7point340
i always thought it evolved out of a dance style.
and it always seemed to me that it would be better suited as an art form much in the way tai chi isfrom a sparring/offensive/defensive perspective is it practical at all?
excuse my ignorance
- a capoiera practitioner would get owned in an MMA fightacescence
- depends. there's a few capoeira heads in MMA that have done OK - Andre Gusman (IFL) and Jean Silva in the UKTheBlueOne
- But it's not designed for MMA...TheBlueOne
- tai chi is actually a martial art disguised as an art form/exercisemcLeod
- true, mcLeod, but you got the gist of my question7point34
- But if you want to learn a martial art for simple quick self defense, capoeira is not a good choice...TheBlueOne
