62 Connecting to Capoeira


There are many many ways for us to connect with/to Capoeira, and here are a few examples:


Always show up to class, starting with your teacher, support 100% of your class by showing up, getting material from your teachers such as instruments, t-shirts, hats, pants, or any material provided by them.

Learning the history behind Capoeira, or ask your teacher to help with that.

Learn Brazilian culture or ask about it, which will give you a basic understanding of what Capoeira is today days. You will be surprised by how everything is connected.

Learn Instruments; I would repeat this so much, learn Berimbau (I’m going to do a follow up with my previous Berimbau episode), learn atabaque and pandeiro, those are the basics and essential for Capoeira!

And again I am going to keep saying this, learn Portuguese, that is going to give you so much understanding of this amazing art, trust me with this, you will be happy how much you can learn by understanding Portuguese!
