  • wonderful..,

  • Please don't tell me this is considered martial arts, This is just break dancing. Nothing else.

  • @Relvolver64 I've seen modern day fighters use Capoeiran techniques in tournaments. Keep in mind that it's a well known fact that any fighting style that can be used in rotation can be considered a real martial art. Note how after every kick arms are kept bent at both sides. The beauty of this style is that you can plant an arm to kick, that tripod formation adds maximum power and control to your kick. The only weakness to this style is that would be powerless against locking techniques.

  • @Relvolver64 But they're obviously dancing in this video, there's a guy playing a drum. Keep in mind that it was a slave invented fighting style. Search for more Capoeira demonstrations, you'll find that it can actually hold it's own against some forms of CKF,TKD and MMA's that have existed for centuries, which should BLOW your mind considering it was invented by a people who only meant to defend themselves and not win wars with it.

  • gaysong

  • Holy Jesus shit... 0_o

  • Patrzcie jaki DEBIL watch?v=4GEKntuasxw&feature=re­lated

  • imagine a capoeira fighter in MMA vs a wushu fighter

  • Waldemar Santana--a Capoeira master defeated Gracie twice and took a draw from Grand Master Kimura. People underestimate Capoeira. and many do not give santana credit that is his due much like GM Chow. Anyone who can take Kimura to a draw has to be given much respect, no question. In his fighting career only four lucky individuals ever defeated GM Kimura - Japan's Greatest Judoka. and yet it is helio gracie who gets the kudos in Brazil when he lost to Santana and Kimura.

  • wwe wrestler Eve Torres, adult entertainment model Busty Dusty and fellow Kenpo / Kajukenbo / Wun Hop Kune Do martial artist and actor martial artist Mark Dacascos practices capoeira

  • anyone else like have those moments when u space out and pretend u can do this...

  • I wonder what class they are...

  • O_O song????

  • como gero o cod para postar ele no meu orkut?

  • Comment removed

  • zeva zeva zeva hee zeva zeva zeva

  • no contact??

  • @Schlumpf2142 capoeira is practiced without contact... is more of a fighting dance than a martial art

  • @HugsmadeDrugs it comes from Brazil. Capoeira was created in the 19th century by African slaves, who had to disguise the martial art as a dance. Music provided by drums and other instruments help to set a rhythm for the game, which consists of two participants using acrobatic play as well as kicks, sweeps and head butts. The technique and strategy are key elements to a well-played game.

    or so i heard

  • @iamdragonborn Actually Capoeira is the result of a hybrid martial art that has its roots in Africa. As African warriors were captured and sold into slavery, their African martial arts made the journey with them. Pooling their martial knowledge in the crucible of slavery in Brazil,they crafted Capoeira about 500 yrs ago. If you look at my ATACXGYMCAPOEIRA videos you'll see the real world fighting that I do with it.

  • @ATACXGYM i did not know that. that is very intresting. thank you

  • @iamdragonborn You are very very welcome my friend. There are many uninformed people [ including so-called "mestres" who should have studied capoeira's history but didn't] who say that "capoeira isn't to fight with". Capoeira was borne literally as a weapon of war and freedom against slavery and slavers and succeeded. It moved to the cities of Brazil as Maltas and terrified oppressors there,and capoeiristas became naitonal heroes when they dazzled Brazil in the war vs Paraguay.

  • @HugsmadeDrugs capoeira has deadly full contact techniques, just that the most popular form of capoeira spread and went contrary to the centuries of documented victories that capoeiristas had over the slavers. Oftentimes the slavers themselves would record how amazing the capoeirista was and is.Anderson Silva,Jose Aldo, and Waldemar Santana--the man who twice beat Helio Gracie--are capoeiristas.

  • Comment removed

  • capoeira originated in Russia during the drunk fights ahaha

  • break dance

  • extrem geil

  • are they fighting or dancing with one another?

  • @oasisbeach

    both.

  • @oasisbeach Yes.

  • what's the name of the song?

  • @PIAN0PLAYER5 paranaue

  • That guy with the dreads is def Eddie Gordo from Tekken

  • @JoeBlow914 thats actually y i looked up this fight style from tekken haha

  • @brandtsback lol i did the same thing. I was like "what is Capoeira?" so i looked it up lol

  • @brandtsback eddy goldo and christie monteiro that is...

  • @shadowlancer45 yep haha awesome fight style...

  • it felt like they're TRYING to NOT hit each other...

  • damn, i'd love to spar a capoeira fighter! i'll probably get whooped but still...

  • @187BlackWolf

    seems like more of a dance form than a practical way to fight...sure you would be in bad shape if one of those kicks connect, but why would anyone just stand there and let one of these guys hit them while they are doing their fancy acrobatics?

  • @etheangel2220 well from what i know this style is all about disguised attacks, yeah "some" of the tricks look unnecessary but are not especially fast motherfuckers that do this style, im pretty sure there not stupid enough to flip towards you lol, more like away while kicking the shit out of you at the same time..

  • @187BlackWolf It was created by slaves. They didnt want their owners to know they were training in martial arts, it was supposed to look like a dance, so this is why you see a lot of "Flair" in this art. There are some people who train in this but specialize in other things... those guys are f'ing deadly... like a spinning ball of kicks and if you go near it - you get kicked. Useless for tall people IMHO because they can't be quick enough to be effective with all this movement.

  • @coloradoskiauthority aah okay well put, this is certainly a good style and i know its killer in lots of situations,

    me i do muay thai and tkd, but capoeira is truly a style i'd love to learn too, well that and jeet kun do,lol

  • @etheangel2220 it would be hard to dodge it if a dude came towards you doing front flips and spinning around to trip you and shit... also you can't get close enough to a dude backflipping out of the fight without getting schmacked wherever the foot hits.

  • i can do the jenga thats pretty much it

  • @jayothatboy i can do the jenga to ... the part where you topple over :P

  • how some Brazilians going for the title of ABDC?

  • @larryhungdo Ohh interesting :-D

  • i do this in real life well the basics of it :D

  • @TheOrpheus22 is it tough to learn? I want to start next year with it, I did karate and muay thai before.

  • @hasanscreed1 If your flexibel and willing- it is easy.

  • @KimBobTraktor training !

  • @hasanscreed1 sorry i havent replyed well it's intense and fun also u get stiffed after though but more u do it the stiffness becomes nothing :)

  • as a child I've seen a movie about capoeira with the same music. Does anybody know the name of the movie??

  • @hasanscreed1 Only the strong (1993)

  • @Gokuroyu thank you very much bro

  • genial....

  • this kid does some balancing capoeira on some dumbbells!

    watch?v=sSspTd5iwas

  • melhores do mundo

  • mt bom

  • more like dancing than fighting

  • @noogiloogi Thats the point

  • @NestleistheBest well that kinda dance sucks

  • this is more like martial arts dancing, martial arts is a FORM. This form is a dancing form. That is why music must be played. You don't here music in a kung fu or judo class do u ? lol

  • this is more like martial arts dancing, martial arts is a FORM. This form is a dancing form. That is why music must be played. You don't here music in a kung fu or judo class do u ? lol

  • i bet getting kicked by one of these guys would hurt... alot!

  • I hate this kind of game, no flow whatsoever. Just doing what they like to show off. :/

  • @OneInchPunchR agreed, there isn't really a game going on at all here. They are just kind of doing their own thing in the same general area with little disregard for each other. hardly any interaction there

  • nice workout , but as self-defense does not convince me

  • @kingskullcruncher Capoeira is not a martial art, it's a dance.

  • @EternalSolitudeOff funny. Your ignorance is amusing. It's neither just a martial arts nor a dance. It's the culture of brazil.

  • @OneInchPunchR culture? culture can be an art; dance, food etc. who is ignorant?

  • @EternalSolitudeOff Your mom. Capoeira IS a combination of art, music, dance and martial arts. But if you've done even a tiny bit of research you'd know that capoeira was originally a martial art.

  • ...questo mi piace tantissimo...ma sono troppo in la con gli anni..ufff!

  • monkey style dance

  • For all you people who think this fighting style cant be used in a real fight, watch only the strong survive or never back down 2 (execpt in never back down 2, he mixes it with jujitsu for some bad ass moves)

  • @xNiiGHTM4REx those are movies idiot.

  • Wow, really guys. Your going to crowd up a video with useless comments. One of you needs to be the better person and just back off. This is one of the martial arts I practice by the way, its not a dance at all.

  • "THEY'RE BREAK DANCE FIGHTING!"

  • just because I say my opinion, appears out of nowhere to insult me, that's my opinion on the dance called capoeira, if you do not like to just go fuck yourself, nosy , if you start dancing like this in a street fight aaaaaahahahahahah I swear I'll bust your head with my magnum, asshole , hahahaha now start your stupid dance.

  • Just because someone replys doesn't mean they care. You want to make yourself sound like you know something when you don't.

  • @CappitranoBellephant how do you know? just because I say my opinion, appears out of nowhere to insult me, that's my opinion on the dance called capoeira, if you do not like to just go fuck yourself, nosy

  • @kingskullcruncher And my opinion is I don't understand why you make irrelevant comments on videos you don't understand. This is a demonstration, not a sparring match. If you know this isn't fighting then why are you comparing it to fighting. No one is implying these are the movments you should be doing in a fight. You just want to be conceited, capoeria isn't even what I practice but I'm not an ass that makes dumb comments. A person like you clearly does not practice anything.

  • @CappitranoBellephant if you don't understand why I make a comment about this workout dance you are an asshole , is simple you "assume" that Idon't know about the subject, but you are the guy who know everything I'm gonna waste my time trying to make you understand that as a member of the social community of youtube i write what I want , so keep moving your butts with your stupid dance and let the people speak , MORON

  • @CappitranoBellephant do not write again , Iknow you are a gay looking for a man who make your pathetic life happy , thats not my line , so keep your distance ,FAG.

  • @kingskullcruncher I hope english is not your first language because that was some of the worst grammar I have ever read. You're not doing a very good job trying to make yourself not seem like an ignorant, stupid, asshole by calling people fags. You obviously have a fear of gay people or perhaps are gay yourself which is why you fely it necessary to bring it up. I like how you said "let people speak" and then you tell me not to comment anymore. Wow... Hypocrite loser.... keep talking it's funny.

  • @CappitranoBellephant thanks for the correction , you'r a literary gay , hahahahahaha

  • @kingskullcruncher Wow... I don't even have to insult you. The stupidity of your comments does it for me. It's a little sad and relieving at the same time.

  • os caras são rápidos!

  • Quase todos eles são ruins , porem tem uns que são Foda!

    imagina você , lutando capoeira e acerta um chute rodado daqueles em auguem?

  • Not gonna lie, this looks sorta stupid :/ Idk...

  • @winterizerable and your comment do not look stupid at all

  • @winterizerable i know i do it my self .. but trust me in a street fight doing this scares away most people and if not you can really hurt someone if you kno how to use it

  • @winterizerable of course, they'll never see the feet of fury coming!!!! but seriously like cmiso said you can really tear someone apart if you know how to do the moves right

  • @winterizerable Then you are sorta boring

  • TOO MUCH ENERGY WASTED , NICE WORKOUT , NICE ACROBATIC SHOW BUT AS A PERSONAL DEFENCE DON'T CONVENCING ME

  • @kingskullcruncher Well, obviously in a real combat you wouldn't stay static on 2 hands. They're diferent; in a 'roda' it's about playing with the other player, not hurting them. Now, there are 'rodas' where the combat gets too close that they start a combat. This phase is called 'trocar' [meaning like 'exchange'], because you start exchanging the movements and knowledge you've got in the past with another player, and improve for a fight.

  • @kingskullcruncher I don't know why guys like you comment on videos like these. No one is saying that these moves should be used for personal defence. It's a demonstration meant to look cool. If you don't give a shit why do you think people really want to hear your opinion. Do whatever the fuck you like to do.

  • @CappitranoBellephant do not say nobody cares about my opinion because it is always an asshole answering to my comment ; )

  • vei se um chute desse pega sem kerer pode chamar o SAMU KKKK!

  • Eddie Tekken :D

  • I miss this soooooo much! -ZUMBI

  • i never heard things like capoeira tournament...

    capoeira doesn't contested..isn't it???

  • i wanna see the vs kali or krav maga i think its be a eventful fight lol

  • So what is the Capoeira move for getting out of a rear naked choke? Absolutely the gayist thing I've ever seen.

  • @VWGTI4LIFE I'm seriously starting to get sick of people that think of mmma as the end-all fighting style. I am a muy thai student, wrestler, and jui jitsu student, and i sparred a 12 year capoeira student that had learned in bazil. He was strong as fuck, managed to keep me from taking me down, and almost took my head off a couple times. I got him in a rear naked and he managed to squirm out of it. the guys on here are purposely not hurting each other and doing the moves too show off.

  • @lovefightplay Not only do you talk toooooo much, you talk with your mouth full as well. I know your mouth was full when you typed your AIDS gay response because you clearly stuffed you stupid face with a massive helping of the "TROLL BAIT" I left for douche bag limp wrist tube straddlers like yourself. I don't care about your stupid fighting styles or Capoeira breakdance fighting. My Kimber Compact .45 is on my hip when needed and I feel that it can beat ANY fighting style in the world.

  • This is the most pointless martial arts there is. You are just disorienting yourself by spinning and flipping around.

  • @greenbaypackersrule1 i though that too until i saw it in action

  • 1:06 is epic :O

    very nice acrobatics, not strictly Capoeira though, more like two seperate people doing seperate capoeira moves- nice though

  • Excellent display of Capoeira.

  • I am a 3rd degree tea kwon do blackbelt. I can tell you from experience that capoeira is a very b eautiful and VERY lethal martial art. I have faught in ternaments against capoeira artists. Yes I have won some, but this art is so unpredictable, its very hard to defend against. I wish there were a school around here. I would sign up in a second.

  • what song name ??

  • drustarl 2 months ago, capoeira is an art hidden in dance but I regret your ignorance

  • TA AI VIDEO DEÇENTE DE CAPOEIRA

  • those players are beginers & dont show enough beauty of this great sport

  • im sorry but capoeira sucks they couldn't kick my ass in a street fight but definably on the dance floor ;)

  • @robny91 caps didn't target butt. we aim head. you love butt because you gay..

  • @zinneraherbs wow rlly caps is not a good martial art i was not looking to offend anybody that did take that and i am sorry if i had offended u its just my personal opinion its good for dancing not fighting im sorry if u wasted money on for dance lessons and not a real martial art. i also feel bad that u got ur ass kicked while u took this dance lesson of a martial art i should suggest boxing okay thnx bye

  • @robny91 Dude you make it sound as if the persons going to dance in a real fight. With the power in their legs after capoeira I'm sure if they land a kick it's going to be a good one. Either way just have respect for martial arts it's culture

  • the song is called Paranaué 

  • I can do that but I don't wanna...

  • and very first comment yes portugese slaves brought to brazil did create it not only for defense but fro entertainment amongst thier ppl and themselves and if u try it it is actualy pretty hard to learn im learning it and trust me its a freakin workout

  • @juroku9 correct cause some ppl think that its just a marital art that it is meant 2 actually kill other ppl and they also think that it can not b used 4 self defense against other ppl that try 2 hurt u

  • u probly think its gay cuz u cant do it huh fu

  • lol

  • Just reminds me of a slinky

  • what song is this? :) can u please tell me :)

  • who are they trying to hit?

  • im sorry but capoeria is not street orientated in a street fight unlike karate boxing taekwonkdo jkd also wing chun. out of all of them wing chun is probably the best for hand techniques

  • Comment removed

  • Tell me were in Texas can I learn this!!!!

  • Wow its like break dancing, but you can kick literal ass with it.

  • No thanks I'll stick to Karate.

  • @Mekrokan i agree capoeria sucks no offense to any capoeria practitioners

  • Looking at this makes me dizzy

  • one of my favorite capoeira videos ever

  • Are there any more videos of the tall guy? His moves are sick!

  • oigan una pregunta para el k me la kiera contestar.......si funsiona el capoeira........esq tengo un amigo que ya yeba mas de 10 años practicando eso y le sale todo muy bn....pero en una pelea verdadera ....se lo desmadraron bien culero

  • hwo do you win?

  • en lo que me doy las pinches marometas ya me rompieron la madre

  • @Luisshamansblues Jajajajaja. Al chile que si.

  • @Bardockchamp It's a compilation of a bunch of songs. A lot of mestres write their own music, so some of them you might have a tough time finding online.

  • wow!
