  • Thank you for sharing... Capoeira, although very young, is a tremendous art.

    axe.

  • @grurbanopt76 Thank YOU for your amazing skill passion and dedication, Animado! You and Tarzan are a credit to capoeira! Aaand capoeira is about 500 (some sources say 600+) years old,so that's pretty decent age for a young martial art. Not as old as say Chinese gungfu but definitely a truly wonderful martial art with vastly underrated benefits. AXE,ANIMADO.

  • @ATACXGYM Thanks for the informative video! I do have some questions. Can heavyset or bigger people (230 lbs or more) effectively learn capoeira? Also, I know that the kicks of capoeira are devastating, but what about the submissions, punches, and knees? I think I might be interested in learning it for self-defense so I just want to ask some questions! Thanks again!

  • @MrMidnightSpecialist There was a capoeirista in the 1800s named Gigante--GIANT--and he carried an axe with him at all times AND did capoeira WITH the axe. My version of self defense capoeira is different than most in that: 1) IT WORKS and 2) WE FIGHT ANYBODY WITH IT...we treat it as the martial art geared for modern and ancient times that it is.We do rodas and music too but we never sacrifice the combative aspects. I will send you more videos to your inbox now.

  • capoeira is one thing im working on for all winter this and jeet kun do will be a awesome mix, thanx for tha vid man.

  • @187BlackWolf Thank you for your wonderful words of support my friend! there are several more capoeira videos coming up during the first two weeks of 2012.Hope you like them at least as much as you like this one!

  • @RonSchinners And you can't kick someone in the face,as you just claimed,when they kicked you in the nuts.You'd be in too much pain.As for the cartwheel kick NOT working? I suggest that you look up "cartwheel kick" right here on youtube.It works in fights and you'll see plenty of examples from MMA to Muay Thai kickboxing to bareknuckle karate to point fighting karate as to how wrong you are.Train it functionally,and you can use it in a fight.simple.Like I said.

  • @RonSchinners You're simply amazingly ignorant.Capoeira has been proven in war against the slavers--whom they defeated,btw--to be absolutely devastating in combat when trained functionally.The Portuguese (for example) left thousands of documents citing the devastation capoeira wreaked both in Brazil and in Angola where Queen Nzinga and her warriors utterly defeated them and all other slavers AT THE SAME TIME with it.Read your history,Ron,and try not to make ignorant statements.

  • capoeira is garbage looks great...real world effective...give me a break...
