"Capoeira is a unique Afro-Brazilian martial art that blends elements of dance, acrobatics, music, and combat into a dynamic and expressive form of movement. Developed by enslaved Africans in Brazil centuries ago, Capoeira serves not only as a martial art but also as a cultural expression and tool for resistance. Characterized by its rhythmic and fluid movements, Capoeira practitioners, known as capoeiristas, engage in a playful and strategic game within a 'roda' (circle) accompanied by traditional instruments like the berimbau and pandeiro. Beyond its physicality, Capoeira embodies a rich cultural heritage, promoting community, history, and personal expression through its unique blend of athleticism and artistry."
